Two young men stand holding surfboards in bright sunlight in front of a wooden structure topped with barbed wire. The man on the left is shirtless with blonde hair, carrying a white surfboard and an orange-and-yellow striped surfboard. The man on the right wears a white tank top and light blue shorts, holding a yellow surfboard. Both men are looking upward and squinting slightly.

MSU Film Collective: NORTH SHORE

(William Phelps, 1987) 

Presented by Kaveh Askari

After learning how to surf by using the local wave tanks, Arizona resident Rick (Matt Adler) uses his winnings from a recent contest to fly to Hawaii and try to make a living for himself as a professional wave rider. He gets off to a rough start, as he finds riding the ocean a lot different from the simulated waves back home, but he soon finds a mentor in the aging surf guru Chandler (Gregory Harrison) and a friend in local girl Kiani (Nia Peeples).
