Foreword with the Cast https://youtu.be/xC4uIEF7LTc?si=RrjC2BWWpGBPjdAq
Sisters of Surf is the story of one woman’s plight through life and coming of age. Growing up Chinese American family where if you didn’t stand out you were to remain silent. To being raised by a single father who at times had to work as many as three jobs to raise four children. Not being academically sound or worthy of being acknowledged. There was always something or someone more important. Years later she would decide to paint her path by relocating to O’ahu to live with her mom and stepfather who in turn introduced her to surfing and she would find peace and acceptance.

Nice work Ramon, the ocean heals everyone ❤👏
Tino ataahua (very beautiful) film. Thank you from the Maori people of Aotearoa New Zealand sister. Mauri Ora! X
It’s beautiful! But I wanna express something more: inspiring, delightful, delicate and well done. I mean delicate, because sometimes it’s not easy to talk about some uncomfortable truths, and she approached with a easy spirit. Well done!
Stay strong, girl! I wish there weren't so many weirdos on this planet. Catch a wave for my next session.
Beautiful film. I’m glad you are positive & have overcome all your tough times. You are enough and inspiring! Much Love
Inspiring! Very well done video, it must have been quite a learning experience working on this project. Hope to see more of these kinds of surf films in the future. Mad respect
