IMDb profile

North Shore is a 1987 film about Rick Kane (Matt Adler), a young surfer from a wave tank in Arizona, who heads to surf the season on the North Shore (O`ahu) and see if he has what it takes to make it as a pro surfer.

[edit] Synopsis

Kane quickly finds out he has neither the skills nor the attitude to make it. After the Hui, led by Vince (surfing legend Gerry Lopez), takes his stuff, he fortuitously runs into Turtle (John Philbin). Turtle introduces him to Chandler (Gregory Harrison), a shaper and soul surfer, who teaches Rick to surf and indoctrinates him in the nuances of the North Shore scene.

[edit] Professional surfers

North Shore features professional surfers Gerry Lopez, Laird Hamilton and Mark Occhilupo.
