Ralph Barbosa: Cowabunga

In the vibrant and kooky world of “Ralph Barbosa: Cowabunga,” we embark on a hilarious and heartfelt journey with Ralph, a down-on-his-luck skateboarder from a small coastal town. Once the pride of his high school and a budding star in the local skate scene, Ralph has watched his dreams fade alongside the skate parks that have been closed down due to city regulations. Desperate to reignite his passion and prove to himself and his friends that he still has what it takes, Ralph stumbles upon the forgotten and eccentric world of competitive street surfing—an underground sport that combines skateboarding tricks with the adrenaline of surfing.

Ralph’s life takes a wild turn when he discovers a hidden community of misfits led by the legendary yet reclusive former champion, Gina “The Wave” Martinez.
