Surf's Up, released by KRS film distributors, is a gorgeous production that lets you share the lives of delightful sea characters.

This animated action-comedy goes behind the scenes of the high-octane world of competitive surfing. Every detail can be enjoyed from the smallest grain of sand to the magnificent beauty of the setting sun.

Teenage Rockhopper penguin Cody Maverick is an up-and-coming surfer entering his first pro competition, accompanied by a camera crew to document his experiences.

He leaves his family home, in Shiverpool, Antarctica, to travel to Pen Gu Island for the Big Z Memorial Surf Off. On the way, he meets Sheboygan surfer Chicken Joe, famous surf promoter Reggie Belafonte, surf talent scout Mikey Abromowit, and spirited lifeguard Lani Aliikai. All of them notice Cody's passion for surfing, even if it is a bit misguided at times.
