There was a comedy from the 1980's, set on the beach somewhere, where a guy goes surfing and gets sucked out to sea. The movie doesn't center on this guy, just cuts to him every once in a while. At one point, he's in a shipping lane on his surfboard, then he's in a storm... It's killing me- what is it?
I think I found it. Here's the trailer... Spoiler <iframe width="420" height="315" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/Udkv5nZ7gcw" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe>
Can't believe no one really knows. It's actually a documentary called "My Life" starring Michael Keaton as Michael Keaton.

I think I found the movie, it's called "They were AAU Teammates: A Dwight Howard and Josh Smith Story"
