'SON Riders' - The movie that inspired a generation of Christian Surfers to take a stand for their faith in Jesus Christ! 

"As a young, lost pro surfer I watched 'Son Riders' and the testimonies of the surfers made a huge impact in my life. Later, I became a follower of Jesus Christ and realized that more movies like Son Riders needed to be produced. Now on the Silver Anniversary of Son Riders and 15 years after my first movie, over 4 million people have heard the Gospel as a direct result of watching Son Riders and the following Walking On Water films I produced. I want to thank the producers of 'Son Riders' for their inspiration!" Bryan Jennings, Founder/Producer of Walking On Water Films

SON Riders; the original movie that takes an exclusive behind the scenes look at Joey Buran's 1984 Pipeline Master's Victory and how his "empty feeling" of standing alone on the beach at Pipeline after the contest, lead 'The California Kid' to make a decision to lay his surfboard at the cross and follow Christ.

Featuring 1984 Pipeline Masters Champion (and '98 ASP World Masters Champ) Joey Buran; 3X U.S. Champion, Mike Lambresi; Peter King (PK); Gary Clisby; and Jimmy Hogan. With Special Appearances by 3X ASP World Champion Tom Curren, and top surfers Dave Macaulay (Australia) and Pierre Tostee (South Africa). 

10 Years before Kelly Slater arrives on the pro surfing scene, 1989's Gold Angel Award Winning SON Riders takes an intimate look behind the contest jerseys at the driving force that motivates these champion surfers to seek more than the next perfect wave; with a desire to know the one who first "Walked on Water"! "For even the winds and the waves obey Him", Luke 8:22-25
