Ahead of The Longest Wave film premiere in the UK, Canada and Australia on Tuesday 10th August, we chatted with Robby Naish about the movie and what we can expect coming out from both him personally, and Naish SUP in the future.
The Longest Wave film premieres in the UK, Canada and Australia on Tuesday 10th August, 2021.
This is the life and story of Robby Naish, who with 24 World Titles is transitioning into an unknown stage of life. His purpose in life every day was about competing and being an exceptional athlete. So now in his fifties, as he figures out what to accomplish next in his life, The Longest Wave documentary sheds light on his career during transition from competing to life after professional sport, a perspective rarely documented.
