Quick Surf Video

You have some nice material there, but the video is a bit monotonous, I think you need to mix it up with some different transitions or effects. It also cries out for some overcranked slowmo.

Also, watch your zebras, the images are overexposed. You may also want to add a circular polarizer to add contrast and reduce the reflections and glare from the waves.
 
bro, way to over exposed.. since there is so much white with the wave, you should expose for that, it was so overexposed it looked colorless.

Set your ZEBRAS on your camera to at least 80% and try let the wave PEAK a bit, only a bit.. but that whole shot is over exposed..

You can try putting into FCP or whatever editing pgrm your using, and bring the whites down a bit, and crush the blacks.. but I'd just go out and shoot some more.. Your camera moves are good.. you got that part down..

Also, try not to shoot when the sun is right overhead.. more frontal would be nice.. A poloraizer would blow your mind! and all that should be shot at 60fps!!!!!

i agree with the above posts, plus try and get some close up or tighter shots next time if you can. maybe some different angles too.
 
Yeah I agree with Justin and also a good surf day would do you good with clean off shores.
