BUSTIN’ DOWN THE DOOR chronicles the revolutionary journey of surfers in the 1970s who transformed the sport, facing intense rivalry and cultural challenges, ultimately setting the stage for modern professional surfing.

In 1975 a group of young surfers revolutionised their sport. This is their untold story. During the winter of 1975 in Hawaii, surfing was shaken to its core. A group of young surfers from Australia and South Africa sacrificed everything and put it all on the line to create a sport, a culture, and an industry that is today worth billions of dollars and has captured the imagination of the world. With a radical new approach and a brash colonial attitude, these surfers crashed headlong into a culture that was not ready for revolution.
