BORN PACIFIC- Manera

Granted, there's no foiling in this, but it's a lovely piece of work in a lovely place and it was a pleasure to watch, so we thought we'd get it up anyway. Manera has beautifully told the story of Pete Devries– a cold water surfer from Tofino, who has made his way to professional surfing in all conditions.


At only 7 years old, a few household chores allowed young Pete to ditch his bodyboard and buy his first surfboard. Back in the days wetsuits didn’t do a great job and so he could only surf in the summer. Then this little guy from Tofino, British Columbia grew up and evolved at an international level. He may find himself wearing boardshorts and surf the most beautiful waves in the world, he is always happy to come home. Addicted to the feeling of gliding on a wave, you’ll always find him in the water whether it rains or snows. Pete is the ultimate cold-water surfer. #StayToasty
