InTrim8 - The Origin: Part One

InTrim8 documents surfing up and down the East Coast during the spring and summer of 2026. It is the first installment of a four part series documenting the origins of surfing, told from the perspective of relatively unknown local Surfers that live the true meaning of what it means to be a Surfer. The series begins with surf stories from my Dad, Noyes B. Livingston III, an early surfer and bodysurfer from the 1960s. Featuring surfing from several breaks in North Carolina, Virginia, and Maryland including Surf City, Assateague, 1st Street Jetty, North Topsail, the OBX, KDH and more. The film also has a segment covering the 2026 Coastal Edge East Coast Surfing Championship. A special thanks to all those involved in the making of this surf film, to include: Noyes B.
