The story

Young surfer Jesse has always been in the shadow of his older brother Victor, who tried to become a champion surfer and failed. Jesse, his friends — Nathan, Andy and Scotty — and his brother Fergus (who has a crush on Andy, which is reciprocated), along with Deb and Leah, all go on a camping-surfing trip to a remote beach. But Victor shows up, things get competitive, and tragedy hits: There is a severe accident in which Andy is seriously injured and Victor is killed.
