		Rafael Peralta was the oldest son: strong, a weightlifter and athlete, head of the family since his father died in a workplace accident three years ago.
		Even in their pain, Peralta's family members are not surprised that he decided to lead from the front.

	Surfing as a Matter of Life and Death; Stacy Peralta on "Riding Giants"
		Peralta: You want to get the film out there, you want to get it purchased, hope you're doing the right thing at the right time, but it can't be the reason that you're doing it.
		Peralta: I met Greg [Noll]; he was the one who inspired me to do this film.
		Peralta: The typical impression is that they are these sand fleas on the beach, who smoke pot and have nothing better to do than surf.

	Observer \| View from a board
		Peralta is more readily associated with skateboarding from his time with the highly influential Zephyr team (the Z-Boys of his debut film's title), but surfing is his enduring love.
		Peralta says he wanted to avoid typical, salt-encrusted 'It's the source, dude' surf mysticism - 'by providing enough of an impression of all the aspects of surfing that people could walk away with their own understanding.
		Both Peralta and George say the Greg Noll section - beginning with the Beach Boys-esque scenes of Malibu mayhem and ending with the monster swell of 1969 - is their personal favourite.

		Peralta called the top action photographers and told them what he was up to, but he wasn't able to go out with them to shoot, or even to give them shot lists.

		Peralta and Crowder's working method is to shoot and edit at the same time.

	The Infamous Peralta Stones
		The stone cutter told him that the Peralta Stones were bogus; the lettering and drawing, though crude in appearance, was too smooth and uniform in places to have been done with hammer and chisel.
		Peralta became a common family name, and there were thousands of them by the middle of the 19th century.
		Pablo Peralta owned a silver mine in Ures, Sonora, for many years, but by the middle of the 19th century the silver was about exhausted and corruption in the local government forced him to abandon the mine.
