Alex Sinunu, a surfer from Santa Monica Bay, faces uncertainty following megafires that polluted local waters with ash and harmful debris. With fears of toxins like asbestos and lithium-ion batteries, the surfing community, including Sinunu's group, the Surfcats, struggles with not being able to surf in their local waters. Despite exploring other activities, such as pickleball or skateboarding, they lament the loss of their surfing lifestyle and quest for safe water to paddle in, traveling miles away to find cleaner conditions.
"The ocean has been filled with ash, debris and endless questions... turned the water brown and raised fears about the toxins that could be coming."
"It's not just the debris that washes up on the shore. My concern is melted Tesla juice... God knows what's in the water."
