This has been an ongoing passion project for Luca and his partners to create and fund this film. They are now in the home stretch of coloring, processing and editing which is always exciting. As with any independent film funding is an issue and your support will go a long way in helping them complete this surfing documentary. The film also features one of our Bing team riders, Alessandro Ponzanelli. Please visit their Indiegogo page and pledge your support for the film.

Travel is all about getting somewhere else.
