call it.<br />

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.
