Overview

In Huanchaco, a coastal village in northern Peru, surfing is said to have been invented three thousand years ago by fishermen on "caballitos de totora", small canoes built from reeds. At the age of 60, Lorenzo Ucañan continues to practice this ancestral form of fishing and heads the association that brings together the last remaining defenders of the tradition.
