Santiago Garamendy is a surfer from an unknown beach in the south of the Atlantic Ocean.
He conquered the most desired, powerful, dangerous and mystical waves in the world. For the last 16 years, he has been working within the organization of the Triple Crown of Surfing, the great international tournament which takes place every year between november and december on Oahu’s North Shore in Hawaii.
His brother, Ramiro Garamendy, has lost in life during a particularly cold winter in Mar de Plata. He is sorely missed. He was a surfer and a lifeguard, but he was, first of all, a great companion in Santiago’s life. After the shock of this tragic event, Santiago still couldn’t come to terms with this relationship. To him, Ramiro is still around, that’s why he decides to honor the deal they made when they were children.
