Pro Beach Hockey: Sun, Surf, & Slapshots

Movie

Starring Jeanie Buss, Mike Butters, Luc Robitaille, Vashi Nedomansky

In 1998, a professional roller hockey league launched on the beaches of California and was broadcast globally on ESPN. Blending extreme sports, pro wrestling theatrics, and surf culture, Pro Beach Hockey became a wild, made-for-TV spectacle. The league exploded into a pop-culture phenomenon that reshaped hockey's demographics- then disappeared just three years later.
