Crossing Currents

Featuring – Diogo Appleton

Captured By – Filipe Neto


Shot across a string of quiet Maldivian atolls, Crossing Currents follows Diogo Appleton as he puts his hand-shaped boards to the test. Long, wrapping point breaks, warm water, and slow island days set the pace. Each board brings something different, and Diogo takes his time, feeling out how they want to be ridden.
 
Captured through Filipe Neto’s calm and thoughtful lens, the film blends smooth surfing with the moments in between; conversations, tinkering, and the small details that reveal why each board was shaped, how it performs, and what Diogo learns along the way.
 
Tune in for an easy watch that stirs the urge to order a new quiver and escape to warm waves and tropical islands.
