Dear & Yonder sets to encourage with its images of World Champions Stephanie Gilmore and Sofia Mulanovich ripping it, and stories of the new crowd of Coco Ho and Sally Fitzgibbons. The film showcases everything from shortboards to longboards and gives a real flavour for women’s surfing.
For those of you who saw Rob Machado in the mesmerizing ‘The Drifter’ earlier this year “Melali” will be the perfect follow on. It was filmed during Machado’s ‘awol’ time in Indonesia, and features everyone from Kelly Slater to Kalani Robb surfing incredible lines in the Indo surf.
