School of Surf vbs.tv, Why has it taken me so long to come across this?

Filmed in Hermosa beach California, school surf teams are competing against each other to eventually win the Red Bull riders cup. Here's the "best part", not only do we get to see them compete but we get watch relationships unfold, family pressures build, possibly a little teenage hilarity and maybe a dash of angst. Not to be confused as just another Laguna, Real OC spin off or whats it called set in Hawaii, this sucker looks as though it may have some real grit, honesty and passion for surfing. To be honest I've only watched the trailer but its made me excited for a good Sunday surf/reality/drama marathon. Lucky me all the episodes are on VBS.tv. I've never really checked out VBS tv before but it happens to be chock full of really interesting and  indepth docos made with endearingly entertaining/ name dropping/ hipster twists on everything from Bolivia, China and Iran to Ethan Fowler talking about his stint with veganism at age 14 , dropping out of school and being mentored by Ed Templeton.
