Kong's Island
“Kong’s Island is The Three Stooges Gone Surfing, with Rabbit Bartholomew, Chappy Jennings, and Gary “Kong” Elkerton getting barreled silly”
Synopsis
Back in 1983 there were still waves men were forbidden from riding. On Kong’s Island you were only going to score the most perfect wave you’d ever seen if you traversed its jungle with Kong himself. But aside from the spectacular surf there were also amazing electric guitar riffs, whacked out sound effects that coincided with each bash against the lip, and the classic creative genius Jack McCoy himself narrating your entire journey. Kong’s Island is The Three Stooges Gone Surfing, with Rabbit Bartholomew, Chappy Jennings, and Gary “Kong” Elkerton getting barreled silly. It’s such a classic it was featured for the crowd at the 13th annual Surfilm Festibal in San Sebastian. This is one you must watch and reminisce.
