Teton Village, WY (April 16, 2008) - Teton Gravity Research (TGR) presents OUT THERE, a16mm and HiDef surf film, brought to you by Jeep and SoBe Life Water. Created in partnership with Surfrider Foundation, OUT THERE showcases today’s most progressive surfing, while considering humankind’s impact on the world’s oceans, beaches and waves.

OUT THERE questions impending threats to Trestles in Southern California, pulp mill pollution in Southern Chile and unrestricted development along Hawaii’s famed North Shore and in Tahiti.
 
“We wanted to do something that no one has ever done before,” says TGR Co-Founder, Steve Jones. “Our goal is to produce a film that not only captures the youth culture and progression taking place within surfing, but also harnesses that energy to inspire surfers and enthusiasts to take action toward protecting endangered, coastal areas around the world.”
 
OUT THERE incorporates state of the art cinematography utilizing water-cams, land perspectives, jet-ski follow cams and aerial cinematography. Through personalities, travel and explosive action the film conveys a seamless portrayal of the surfing lifestyle in locations including southern Chile, Hawaii, Tahiti, El Salvador, California and the Galapagos Islands.
 
The film features the surfing of John-John Florence, Jamie Sterling, Raimana Van Bastolear, Jordy Smith, Jamie O’Brien, Nate Yoemens, Brett Simpson, Greg Long, Garret McNamara and Pancho Sullivan, along with the Billabong XXL winning session Shane Dorian, Ian Walsh and Manoa Drollet surfed during what may be the largest waves ever ridden at Tahiti’s famed break, Teahupoo.
