- TriviaJon Stevenson, one of the most successful and respected pros in the game of beach volleyball, was the film's major consultant, volleyball technical adviser and game choreographer, and trained both lead actors, Peter Horton and C. Thomas Howell. Stevenson was a founding member of the Association of Volleyball Professionals (AVP) and won 21 Open titles, served on the AVP Board of Directors from 1984 until 1995, and was elected Player President in 1989. After serving six consecutive terms, he was named Executive Director in 1995. He was a commanding presence on the court despite a frame of merely 6' among much taller players. Sadly, Jon Stevenson passed away in June of 2012.

For a Beach Movie This Wasn't Too Bad
"Monroe Clark" (C. Thomas Howell) is flying out to Los Angeles to work during the summer for his wealthy "Uncle Max" (Terry Kiser) who happens to be a real estate lawyer. Monroe's first job is to serve eviction notices to those who cannot pay their rent. In the process of serving a notice on a famous beach volleyball player named "Zack Barnes" (Peter Horton), he also meets an attractive cocktail waitress by the name of "Samantha" (Courtney Thorne-Smith). One thing leads to another and before he knows it another person named "Wiley Hunter" (Christopher Rydell) convinces him to team up with him in a beach volleyball competition. And then things begin to get interesting. Anyway, for a beach movie this wasn't too bad. Although the plot was somewhat routine and the acting was barely adequate, the thing that kept this movie entertaining was the fast-paced sports action and some nice looking ladies including Harley Jane Kozak (as "Kate Jacobs"), Kathy Ireland ("Marie") and the aforementioned Courtney Thorne-Smith. Again, it's a beach movie and so one shouldn't expect too much from it. I rate it as average.
