The film pairs surfing’s living legends with today’s most progressive young surfers.

Directed by award-winning filmmaker Taylor Steele and produced in conjunction with Teton Gravity Research (TGR) and Garage Films, Proximity explores the delicate relationship between time and place, showcasing surfing icons from different generations in diverse locations around the world.

Taylor will be on-hand for a Q&A, plus there will be a give-away of a Slater Designs Sci-Fi Surfboard, courtesy of Surf Ride.
