Point Break Patrick's Favorite Movie

Two months before filming, Lori Petty, Reeves and Swayze trained with former world class professional surfer Dennis Jarvis on the island of Kauai in Hawai'i. Shooting the surfing sequences of Point Break proved to be challenging for both Keanu and Patrick who unfortunately broke four of his ribs. For many of the surfing scenes he refused to use a stunt double as he never had one for fight scenes or car chases. This is Patrick shredding a big one. He also did the skydiving scenes himself and the film's aerial jump instructor Jim Wallace found that the Patrick was a natural and took to it right away. Patrick ended up making 55 jumps for the film. Swayze actually based aspects of his character after one of his stunt doubles, Darrick Doerner, a top big wave surfer. I admired his athleticism and his grace as an dancer. I am sad he was taken from us so early, he survived a long time after being diagnosed with pancreatic cancer-I miss him a whole lot.
