Mavericks Film Shooting On Location at Montara State Beach Tonight
Crews started setting up for the all-night shoot earlier this afternoon.

By Kristine Wong

Montara State Beach and the parking lots flanking La Costanera restaurant on Highway 1 have been a buzz of activity throughout the day as crews prepare to film a night scene for the "Of Men and Mavericks" movie about big wave Mavericks surfer and Santa Cruz native Jay Moriarity.

Though Moriarity is well-known and respected among big wave surfers from Pacifica, Half Moon Bay and Santa Cruz for his skill taking on the world-famous surf break just outside Half Moon Bay as just a teen, his greatest legacy seems to be the effect he had on the surfing comunity itself for his infectious positive spirit.

"Jay is what surfing is all about ... he had a smile on his face and he was super stoked," reigning Mavericks surf contest champion Chris Bertish said at the opening ceremonies of the 2010-2011 Jay at Mavericks Big Wave Invitational on Mavericks Beach last November.

Moriarity died in a diving accident in 2001 at the age of 22.

The production team is planning to shoot a bonfire scene at the south end of the beach throughout the night to Saturday morning, according to an unnamed source familiar with the film.

Earlier today, a half-dozen trucks filled with equipment were being unloaded up in the La Costanera parking lot, while production crews drove carts back and forth along the beach. A few lights were already set up by mid-afternoon.

Starring Gerard Butler as Moriarity's mentor Rick Hesson and Jonny Weston as Moriarity himself, the film has been shooting at various locations in Santa Cruz, Pacifica, and San Mateo.

Tonight's scene shooting at Montara State Beach is reportedly supposed to include Jonny Weston playing the young Moriarity, according to the unnamed source.

Whether Gerard Butler will be featured in tonight's scene is unknown.

In December, the film plans to shoot scenes on the coastal blufftops at Mavericks just outside Half Moon Bay to coincide with the big wave surfing season.

Hope they are careful. There was a shark sighting last week:

Suddenly the theme from Jaws is drifting through my mind.

Oh well, that's what stunt doubles are for. Wink

There was a shark attack on Saturday. The guy just got out of the hospital today. He was bitten on the neck and arm.

But Gman's in L.A. so I guess he's safe from at least ocean sharks. Don't know about land sharks.

Aren't there always land sharks fluttering around him anyway?
