📍Birds Surf Shed
📅 Monday, June 19th

Join us for a special one-night-only screening of the award-winning documentary Bustin’ Down the Door at the iconic Birds Surf Shed.

Set on Oʻahu’s North Shore in the winter of 1975, this powerful film chronicles the true story of a group of young Australian and South African surfers who risked everything to chase their dreams. Their aggressive new style clashed with local traditions and sparked a cultural revolution that gave birth to modern professional surfing.

Narrated by Edward Norton and featuring an unforgettable soundtrack with David Bowie, Iggy Pop, and Leonard Cohen, the film captures the raw energy and fearless ambition of future world champions Wayne “Rabbit” Bartholomew, Ian Cairns, Mark Richards, Shaun Tomson, and Peter “PT” Townend.

🎥 Stay after the screening for a live Q&A with Rabbit, Cairns, Richards, Tomson, and PT — a rare chance to hear directly from the legends who changed the sport forever.

Don’t miss this 50th anniversary celebration of one of surfing’s most pivotal eras.
