PRIBOI FILM

About the film

​

It all started with a couple of guys who never stopped looking for new surf spots. They soon grew into a team of like-minded individuals. SURFSIBERIA team began documenting their adventures in 2014. After five successful episodes, we embarked on making a full-length feature film – “Priboi”. A film about conquering waves, riding with the best local surfers, and searching out the most inaccessible spots. Directed by Konstantin Kokorev, – this film tells the story of how surf culture was born and developed in Russia – with never-before high-quality filming and editing.
