Shredding: A New Lens in Surf Filmmaking

OTC at the Brooks presents a screening of Shredding: A New Lens in Surf Filmmaking on Friday July 25 at 8 PM at the historic Sunshine Brooks Theater (217 N. Coast Highway Oceanside CA)!

Shredding is a short surf film program that challenges outdated stereotypes about who belongs in surf culture. Instead of centering caricatures like Spicoli or Bodhi these films highlight surfers from Morroco to the California coast—people whose presence on the water redefines what it means to “shred.”

Through stories of access identity and resilience Shredding celebrates a new wave of surfers expanding the sport’s image and welcoming others to do the same. What remains after dismantling the old archetype is something deeper: the shared joy freedom and connection that surfing brings to all who answer the ocean’s call.

With films by Rabbi Chel Mandell Lo Frentz Serra Soyupak Peter Williams Nesrine Majzoub Zachary Zezima Yusuf Demirörs and Arne JinAn Wong. Filmmakers will be in attendance!
