Rip Curl have just released their latest Search film: Lazer Breathing Dragons. Starring Steph Gilmore, Tom Curren and Mason Ho, the 15-minute feature follows Gilmore’s first Search trip since re-signing with Rip Curl and taking a break from the championship tour. Drawing cues from the fun of the 1980s, it was a chance for the 8x women’s world champ to explore a new pace for her surfing.
“All my life I’ve surfed with primarily one major purpose. To go fast with fierceness and style,” says Steph about her approach to her career. “I don’t know what is next for me. I don’t know what is next for my surfing. But I’m very excited about it. That is my Search.”
The trip takes viewers to different breaks in Indonesia, with plenty of tubes, palm trees and tropical personality. Highlights include the iconic carves of Gilmore, Tom Curren’s timeless tube riding, and a wild rodeo air from Mason Ho – all set to an 80s-inspired soundtrack.
