Kamchatka might be one of the wildest frontiers in the Northern Hemisphere. Protruding out into the Pacific Ocean with the Sea of Okhotsk on its other side, the baron Arctic peninsula is the home of both fire and ice, with frozen coastlines yet to be explored and towering volcanos that number in the hundreds.
Sounds like the perfect destination for a surf trip with the boys, right? Earlier this year, filmmakers Spencer Frost and Guy Williment as well as surfers Letty Mortensen and Fraser Dovell took the leap and made the trip. But of course, after two years of planning, an hour before their flight to Moscow… Russia invaded Ukraine.
At a time when the world was seeing the worst of human nature, these guys flew behind the iron curtain and found, to their surprise, the best of it. Mi-8 helicopters, skidoos, frozen campsites, and frozen bank accounts, this surf trip quickly became far more than anyone could imagine.
