We relive those profound years that experienced a revolutionary leap forward in surfing design, performance, and image, and weave through to the present where you experience first hand what it takes to be a part of the most progressive surfing team in the world. Flow reveals the core, revolutionary changes that resulted in a worldwide recognition of modern surfing. It is not just a surf film with beautiful imagery and a loose story structure, but rather a heart-felt, soulful perspective on one man’s influence on a bevy of talented individuals. This film will not only illustrate the revolution of modern surfing, but it will inspire people that are completely distanced from the sport into a whole new way of thinking about these athletes and the lives they lead. It speaks to the hearts and minds of anyone who seeks adventure or wants to tap into the mystical sides of their personality. The integrity of this film will surely set a precedent not only in the genre but also in the industry as a whole. Flow is the true story of a surfing revolution.
