Chasing Mavericks 

When 15-year-old Jay discovers that the mythic Mavericks surf break is just miles from his Santa Cruz home, he enlists the help of local legend Frosty Hesson (Gerard Butler) to train him to survive it.

As Jay and Frosty embark on their quest to accomplish the impossible, they form a unique

friendship that transforms both their lives, and their quest to tame Mavericks becomes about far more than surfing.

Chasing Mavericks was made with the help of some of the biggest names in the surfing world, and it features some of the most mind-blowing real wave footage ever captured on film.
