Shaka is the story of a challenge, a personal one, of legendary four-time World Champion snowboarder Mathieu Crepel to surf some of the world’s toughest breaks.

Having grown up riding both waves and powder, Mathieu is one of the few athletes in the world to excel in two disciplines that have much in common but are still so different.

Retired from the competition circuit but still restless for adventure, the former Olympic contender decides to face one of the biggest challenges of his life: surfing the notorious wave of Jaws, Hawaii.

With an unquenchable thirst for adventure and adrenaline, he has chosen - once again - to get out of his comfort zone and push his limits to the extreme.

Showcasing breathtaking footage of snowy peaks and massive waves at iconic locations in Hawaii, Italy, Oregon, Indonesia, and around Mathieu’s home in the Southwest of France, Shaka introduces you to diverse legends in the surf and snowboarding world including Koa & Eddie Rothman, Guillaume Nery, Kepa Acero, Gerry Lopez, Victor Daviet, and Nathan Fletcher.

la déferlante surf

► Screening as part of the temporary exhibition ''La Déferlante Surf '' at the Musée d'Aquitaine in Bordeaux
Saison Culturelle Liberte Bordeaux 2019 from June 19th, 2019 to January 5th, 2020

Immerse yourself in the “surf culture” and discover this global phenomenon that entered Europe through Aquitaine in the late 1950s.

Beyond sport, surfing - an emblem of freedom - has its origins in a collective and fantasized imagination, associated with nature, beauty and youth.
The exhibition is illustrated by more than 500 pieces from public and private collections, and mainly the major collection of Gérard Decoster.
Archive documents, screening and soundscapes accompany visitors on this original dive.
