If you thought a two-hour drive to find an uncrowded surf spot was dedication, talk to filmmaker Ben Gulliver.


For him, there are no web cams or surf reports. Instead, the search for good waves involves calling on seaplanes, helicopters, boats, and “20 years of wisdom” to locate and shoot some of the most remote breaks in the world.


The short film “A New Breed: Get Miles Away” from the Creator Class follows Gulliver, photographer Jeremy Koreski, and professional surfers Pete Devries and Noah Cohen to the rugged coastline of Tofino, Canada, where short, frigid winter days and unpredictable weather systems can lead to nightmare surf conditions … or the perfect shot on an untouched wave.
