805 Beer Films Presents Making Waves: The Lakey Peterson Story.
For Authentico Lakey Peterson, the ocean isn’t just a playground, it’s a proving ground. Shot by acclaimed surf filmmaker Morgan Maassen, the latest film from 805 Beer tells the story of one of surfing’s most fearless competitors, tracing her rise from prodigy to powerhouse on the Championship Tour.
Also starring Conner Coffin, Sage Erickson, Britt Merrick, Mike Parsons, and Strider Wasilewski, Making Waves is now streaming on our official YouTube channel and World Surf League website, and you can catch it full below.
Raised on the shores of Santa Barbara, Lakey’s connection to the water was immediate. But this isn’t just another surf film. It’s an inside look at the mindset of an athlete who has spent her life pushing boundaries and redefining women’s surfing.
At its core, Making Waves isn’t about winning or losing—it’s about the journey. Through breathtaking cinematography and never-before-seen footage, the film explores the moments that matter most: the experiences, the challenges, and the people who shape a life spent in the water. From Lakey’s home breaks in California to the world’s most iconic waves, this is a story of passion, resilience, and a deep connection to the sea.
