From award-winning documentary filmmaker, Stacy Peralta comes Patagonia’s The Yin & Yang of Gerry Lopez, a film that lifts the veil on one of surfing’s most enigmatic heroes. While “Mr. Pipeline” is famously known for his calm demeanor in the tube, Gerry built his early career on cutthroat, aggressive surfing. Gerry is as radical as he is Zen; he transcends categorization. He’s one of the most influential surfers and surfboard shapers of all time, an entrepreneur, a family man, a movie star, and a lifelong yogi who brought surfing to new frontiers. His influence on modern surfing is immeasurable, and his story is being told in full for the first time.

Surfer and self-proclaimed former “delinquent” Yusei Ikariyama grew up in the warm tropical waters of Amami Ōshima, the largest island in Japan’s Amami archipelago known for its surfable waves

Surfer and self-proclaimed former “delinquent” Yusei Ikariyama grew up in the warm tropical waters of Amami Ōshima, the largest island in Japan’s Amami archipelago known for its surfable waves and thriving coral reefs. But when industrial development threatens the coastline and its biodiverse ecosystems, he spearheads a movement to save his homeland. Patagonia Films’ documentary short Totoganashi follows Yusei’s evolution from pro surfer and father to the founder of NEDI, a nonprofit named for the space where the ocean intertwines with the land. Inspired by the local saying, “one fight bleeds for three generations,” he realizes that to keep this shared coastline healthy, he must first unite his community.  Directed by Alex Lowther and Kosuke Fujikura Produced by Monika McClure, Takuji Sasaki, and Tomoo Makino Edited by Jack Schlinkert Cinematography by Campbell Brewer and Char Tsuchiya Subscribe: https://pat.ag/Subscribe Get more from Patagonia: Official site: https://pat.ag/Patagonia Patagonia Stories: https://pat.ag/PatagoniaStories Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/patagonia/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/PATAGONIA/ Twitter: https://twitter.com/patagonia TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@patagonia?lang=en LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/patagonia_2/ About Patagonia: At Patagonia, we appreciate that all life on earth is under threat of extinction.
