En 1956, le Docteur Paskowitz avait tout réussi : médecin renommé, sportif accompli, il faisait même ses débuts dans la politique locale à Hawaï. Bref, c'était le parfait exemple du rêve américain. Ou du moins le croyait-il, jusqu'à LA révélation...

Le réalisateur Bruce Brown suit deux surfeurs, Mike Hynson et Robert August dans un voyage autour du monde. Malgré le climat agréable de leur Californie natale, les courants froids rendent les plages locales inhospitalières durant l'hiver. C'est pourquoi, aux côtés de Rodney Sumpter et de Nat Young, ils décident de voyager vers les côtes de l'Australie, de la Nouvelle-Zélande, de l'Afrique du Sud, de Tahiti et d’Hawaï, en quête de nouveaux spots de surf - et de la vague parfaite. Ils en profitent pour introduire les locaux à ce nouveau sport. De nombreux surfeurs connus apparaissent durant leurs aventures, Miki Dora, Phil Edwards et Butch Van Artsdalen.

Dogtown and Z-Boys, narrated by Sean Penn, begins with the history of skateboarding in Southern California and how it had been strongly influenced by the surf culture in the surrounding areas of Santa Monica and Venice, nicknamed Dogtown. Surf shop owners Jeff Ho, Skip Engblom, and Craig Stecyk established the Zephyr Skateboard Team with local teenagers from broken homes. The sport of skateboarding continued to evolve as the Z-Boys continued to bring edgy moves influenced by surfing. During one of California's record-breaking droughts, local backyard pools were emptied and became hotspots for these young skateboarders looking for places to skateboard. The members of the Zephyr team gained notability and national attention when they competed in skateboard championships and started to receive media attention for their skills as young athletes. Testimonials and commentary provided by the members and founders of the Zephyr team combined with the rock-and-roll soundtrack and vintage footage all come together in this documentary about the history and lives of the original Z-Boys and skateboarding subculture of California.

The film begins with a historical overview, starting at its Hawaiian beginnings, then moves on to focus on the dangerous lure of big wave surfing (surfing waves that can reach up to 70 feet). The documentary chronicles the evolution of riding at Hawaii's Waimea Bay in the 1950s, the revolution of lighter boards, and tow-in surfing to allow for "riding giants". Three surfers who are part of this multi-generational evolution are spotlighted: Greg Noll is shown as a fearless big wave rider during the 1950s and 60s; Jeff Clark who discovered Mavericks in Northern California and surfed there alone for years; and Laird Hamilton, the contemporary surfer who brings tow-in riding to the limelight.
