About this eventGerry Lopez, AKA Mr. Pipeline, is one of surfing’s most enigmatic heroes—a Zen Buddhist on land who built his early career on aggressive surfing that left behind a trail of blood and tears. Patagonia Film’s “The Yin & Yang of Gerry Lopez”—directed by award-winning documentary filmmaker Stacy Peralta—follows one of the most influential surfers and surfboard shapers of all time as he brings surfing to new frontiers while pursuing stillness of body and mind. Come ride the lightning.

By taking a strategic focus on both physical and spiritual wellness, they create a community of healing for our Black, Indigenous, and People of Color Community here in Santa Cruz. Black Surf Club empowers our Black community to reclaim their space in the ocean through surfing, spiritual wellness, water safety, and community.
