UPDATE: it took less than 12 hours for the RealSurf community to come up with the answer on this one!

We received the following email…

I am a TV producer looking for information on a video clip which was originally posted to the Real Surf message board, and was apparently was filmed on Collaroy Beach.

I want to use the clip on the show I am working on, but in order to do that, I need to get permission from whoever shot or owns the footage. I’m doing some detective work to try to track that person down, since the person who posted it on youtube doesn’t own it but says they got it off the Real Surf message board.

Here’s the clip:

Please let me know if you happen to know anything about who shot this, or who is in it, who originally posted it, etc. Any help at all or would be greatly appreciated, even if it’s just forwarding this message on to others who may possibly know. We would officially license it from the owner and pay them a fee, so someone may be happy to get this message. J
