That was quite nice JZ... good music selection... that actually made techno fun to listen to! I also liked the slow motion on the gull flight section.
(Oh, good that you did not add a Google Earth location map in the corner and get the surf N-zis all worked up!)
A REALLY fun watch, well produced. I am in a perpetual state of orienteering, so I was always trying to figure out your exact location, especially
from the bike POV.

Let's see how you did. Bear in mind the video isn't in exact order of places North to South. It's mixed up.
Intro shots of the mountains are from just a bit below Puerto Canoas. There is a house right before the beach.
Fly over the camp on the cliff is roughly 8.5 miles South of San Jose.
First shots from bike POV are 3 miles South of Cono. Lots of dunes there. I lost some footage from the first trip there, including me flying up that
tall sand mountain you see in the distance on the left as we are leaving. The first time I tried to ride up it the bike dropped down into the sand
and stopped with me flying over the handle bars. I had another beer and gave it a 2nd go and made it. Sadly, the GoPro f-d up and there is no video
record of the flip.
Riding down into the salt flat is about 2.5 miles South of Cono.
Drone shots of the camp on the beach and riding shots of the dunes are at Punta Lobos.
The beach we ride into and circle out before climbing the hill is Cono. I tried to ride a much steeper hill in that area over rocks and went tumbling
backwards down the hill. I went back and forth on whether to include that footage. Below is a pic after I got the bike back up.
Fly over the truck on the cliff and the ocean shots were half a mile South of San Jose.
Slow-mo of the sea gulls is about 6 miles South of San Jose, first beach after you cut back out to the coast when headed South.

Not so good. I quickly figured out that it was not in geographical or chronological order: in one shot the ocean is on the right, in the next it is on
the left. Low sun angles in some shots.
The bike shots make me want to take my DRZ down there, but then there is the hazard of breaking into race mode.
