Hi,

I'm a researcher for a documentary-maker and I'm hoping to get in touch with Toru, the Japanese surfer who featured in this story:

https://www.swellnet.com/news/swellnet-dispatch/2017/01/14/japanese-sur…

I'd be very grateful for any leads about where he might be at the moment and how to get in touch. Happy to provide more info about the project on request.

Thanks so much,
Debra Shulkes, debra.shulkes@gmail.com
