  • Shaping the Future with Robert Helphand and Tony Gentile
    Jun 17 2025
    The birth of Wave Tools became an instant curiosity when Robert Helphand and Tony Gentile interviewed Lance Collins for a different project back in 2018. That interview ignited a documentary project seven years in the making called Shaping the Future. Robert and Tony detailed the engineering and design of new shapes and techniques, and brought to cinematic life the loud, aggressive logos and surfing, all heavily photographed on Echo Beach in Newport, CA.

  • After the Journey with Ben Whyte and Ali Mancuso
    Jun 2 2025
    For those of you who didn't get to listen to Ben Whyte and Ali Mancuso on Episode 68 - Breaking Waves Sailing, don't fret, you can always go back and listen first, but it's not necessary. They have a wonderful story to tell here about crossing the pacific as rookies on a 41' sailboat named Kiana. Through an unexpected dry dock on a reef and a month long sabbatical near Tavarua, as well as some empty anchorages in paradise, you'll capture a moment of pure stoke with them. But experience it all through their storytelling on Breaking Waves Sailing on YouTube. Enjoy. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
