Reel update.

A mix of sports, cars, and motorcycles, shot across East to West.

Those days covered in dirt but still feel close.

Years ago, a drunken friend asked me “Do you know where the gate of heaven is?” He said, “It’s between water and water.”

That casual remark planted a seed that eventually led me to the ocean and into the surf. This film is dedicated to everyone on the road, still searching for their own answers.
