Of course, Matty and Heather rode out their journey<br />
on more than just a few surfboards. Luckily for us,<br />
after growing sick of leaving tyre tracks and plumes of<br />
petrol behind them, they eventually downshifted from<br />
motorbikes to riding on horseback.<br />
Oh, those horses. If you asked anyone what their<br />
favourite part of the film was, they would most likely<br />
say Blacky, Pichi, Salvador, and sweet old Harimau.<br />
They simply made the film as memorable as it was,<br />
with their experiences being as entertaining and<br />
touching as the couples’ were.<br />
Matty explained it best when he said the horses<br />
amplified their emotions throughout the entire trip.<br />
“Just knowing there was a<br />
traversable coastline that<br />
long in the world, that also<br />
copped swell all year round,<br />
was enough of a reason to grab<br />
a board and go.”<br />
