When young Jay Moriarity discovers that the mythic Mavericks surf break, one of the biggest waves on Earth, exists just miles from his Santa Cruz home, he enlists the help of local legend Frosty Hesson to train him to survive it.

I really enjoyed this movie. I liked that it was based on a true story. Amazing what Jay was able to accomplish after going through so much in his young life. Gerard Butler gave an impressive performance as Jay's mentor. Some very powerful and touching scenes. A must see movie.
