Join the surf community on Saturday, October 5th for an action-packed movie screening featuring 3 incredible films that you don't want to miss.
"The Forgotten Islands" : A group of seasoned surfers who've searching for waves since the 60s called this expedition The Western Aleutian Wave Exploration. It was for them the pinnacle of their careers, and an ambitious plan to explore the waves of this unknown region between Alaska and Russia. As they discovered the surf potential of some of the 30 unexplored island that form the Aleutian chain, they also found much more.
“Place of Thorns” captures the highs and lows of Mexico's most captivating beachbreak and why its future is under threat.
"KELP TOWN: A Love Story (& Some Surfing)"
Adin Masencamp takes us on a journey to a special wave nestled amongst huge kelp heads in the deep ocean off Southern Africa. But it’s not a wave for the faint of heart.
Surfing here requires dodging abalone poachers and the occasional shark, not to mention the wave itself, which bears a small-scale yet striking resemblance to Pipeline in Hawaii – if Pipeline broke in freezing cold water and was littered with huge kelp heads.
Along the way we discover why this is one of the few places in the world where kelp forests are growing rather than shrinking, and what it takes to surf amongst them.
All proceeds from the event benefit the National Kidney Foundation of Florida patient programs and kickoff the holiday weekend 39th Annual NKF Rich Salick Surf Fest. Tickets are $10 each doors open at 6:00 and the first film starts at 6:30pm
