CAST

Unlike most adventure films, we will dive deep into the backstories of these women, revealing their grit and guts, ultimately

showing that pushing the limits of human ability, and seeking high-risk outdoor adventure are no longer the purview of men alone.

Our cast includes two time big wave world champion Paige Alms, Puerto Escondido Cup winner Bianca Valenti, SUP,

outrigger and big wave surf pioneer Andrea Möller and the original big wave warrior, former WCT star Keala Kennelly.

 

Despite their achievements in the water, these women struggle for sponsorship and juggle full time jobs to support their passion.
