When Kai Lenny says he didn't think “the waves in Central America were that big,” there's no doubt that the spot is promising.
Kai sets off to explore the coastline of El Salvador with his brother Ridge and Spanish big wave enthusiast Natxo Gonzalez. To say that their quest was a resounding success would be an understatement.
Although El Salvador has 300 kilometers of Pacific coastline, much of it is inaccessible due to dense jungle. Follow the Lenny brothers. While arming themselves with a thirst for adventure and all the tools necessary to tackle big waves is the first step, putting together a team of locals willing to help them access the Salvadoran coastline is crucial. The element of chance inherent in hunting waves in the most remote corners of this region is the mystery ingredient on which the success of their mission depends. Did they succeed? You dare to ask the question? Press play and you'll have the answer.
