Surfer Jamie Brisick finds solace in the water

  • Text by HUCK HQ
Rhymes With Shove — Former pro surfer, writer and filmmaker Jamie Brisick knows what it means to have loved and lost. In this Huck Film, the power of the ocean unleashes a flood of memories.

Rhymes With Shove is about lost love — a meandering journey through the spaces we inhabit when we’re unravelling within.

A pro surfer who once blazed a trail on the world tour, Jamie Brisick has taken the fodder of his former life and carved out a career in storytelling as a writer and filmmaker.

In this conceptual short film, he returns to the surf after a personal tragedy and loses himself in the painful no-man’s land between the past and the present.

Directed by Jamie Brisick and Isabel Freeman.
