Utah nods. H<strong>is</strong> eyes track the unruly break.<br />
Who's that?<br />
UTAH<br />
A LONE SURFER slashing through the pilings of the pier. A<br />
real kamikaze run as the whitewater walls thunder behind<br />
him.<br />
SILHOUETTED against a crimson sky and backlit spray the<br />
figure pumps among the pier pilings in a frenzy of motion<br />
that <strong>is</strong> somehow balletic.<br />
Laying out bottom turns, torquing h<strong>is</strong> body and blasting<br />
the lip a few times, moving so fast h<strong>is</strong> long dark hair<br />
stands straight back as if he were leaning out a car<br />
window on the freeway.<br />
TYLER (V.O.)<br />
That's Bodhi. They call h<strong>is</strong> the<br />
Bodh<strong>is</strong>attva.<br />
Utah watches as THE BODHISATTVA gets vertical with a snap,<br />
trims down the volcanic wall, carves the bottom, pivots,<br />
pumps to the top, gouging the lip, getting six feet of<br />
air.<br />
Gawkers HOWL and shout pra<strong>is</strong>e at the manic surfer.<br />
TYLER<br />
The modern savage. Guy's even<br />
crazier than you, Johnny Utah.<br />
C'mon.<br />
They start to walk. The sky darkens as the sea finally<br />
closes out completely. The Bodh<strong>is</strong>attva seems to levitate<br />
through the shapeless mush to shore.<br />
Brah!<br />
ROACH (O.S.)<br />
Suddenly a football wh<strong>is</strong>tles through the air above Utah's<br />
head.<br />
He watches as--<br />
The Bodh<strong>is</strong>attva, board under arm, walking out of the<br />
whitewater, makes a one-handed chest catch.<br />
A few yards away two teams of SURFERS play football.<br />
Utah gazes down the beach at the Bodh<strong>is</strong>attva.<br />
Almost 30 years old, h<strong>is</strong> body lean and hard as a tree<br />
trunk. Hardness in the face accented <strong>by</strong> long Comanche<br />
hair.<br />
Hey Tyler!<br />
BODHI<br />
She whirls. Bodhi pumps h<strong>is</strong> arm. Tyler jogs back for the<br />
catch. Bullseye. She shoots Bodhi a look. Something<br />
crosses her face.<br />
Bodhi smiles. Tyler doesn't. Then it passes.<br />
She chucks the ball to Utah.<br />
Who drops h<strong>is</strong> board and makes the catch in one move.
