Documentary
Life isn’t always easy, and it’s rarely fair. Born into surfing royalty, Mason Ho’s unique style in the water, plus larger than life personality out of the water, has put him at the top of the surfing game. Meanwhile, his friend Sheldon Paishon, who grew up on the rugged Westside of Oahu, hasn’t had it quite so easy. Director Alan Media seeks to tell the story of these two friends that grew up on the same island but under considerably different circumstances.

IMDB 8 | Jan , 2014
When Volcom was founded in 1991, it was the first company to combine skateboarding, surfing and snowboarding under one brand from its inception. This way of life influenced the anti-establishment style and attitude that defined a generation. The cultural phenomenon was best captured when Volcom released "Alive We Ride" in 1993: a film documenting the raw excitement and spontaneous creativity inherent to the lifestyle. Twenty-one years later, with the release of "True To This", Volcom again captures the energy and artistry of board-riding in its purest forms. Shot all around the world and showcasing iconic athletes, "True To This" is a tribute to the movement that inspired a generation and the people and places that embody that spirit today.The September Sessions
