In this environment, he makes many significant encounters and fully invests himself in it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>He then enrolled at the Brittany surf school, where he met Renan Chatin, the technical director of the club. Due to his qualities, he quickly joined the club's competition group and participated in many competitions. These competitions then pushed him to travel around the world to improve and diversify his surfing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>One day, a long-time friend, Alex Poulard, came to him and proposed making a film about him, the practice of surfing, and everything around it. Without any real videography or film training, Alex took on his own challenge and Martin followed him. This was the beginning of a great adventure.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large is-resized\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/wildsuits.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/Martin_chouraqui_true_wave-1-819x1024.jpeg\" alt=\"Martin Chouraqui \u00e0 Teahupoo\" class=\"wp-image-40508\" width=\"840\" height=\"1050\" srcset=\"https:\/\/wildsuits.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/Martin_chouraqui_true_wave-1-819x1024.jpeg 819w, https:\/\/wildsuits.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/Martin_chouraqui_true_wave-1-240x300.jpeg 240w, https:\/\/wildsuits.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/Martin_chouraqui_true_wave-1-768x960.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/wildsuits.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/Martin_chouraqui_true_wave-1-1229x1536.jpeg 1229w, https:\/\/wildsuits.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/Martin_chouraqui_true_wave-1-1638x2048.jpeg 1638w, https:\/\/wildsuits.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/Martin_chouraqui_true_wave-1-10x12.jpeg 10w, https:\/\/wildsuits.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/Martin_chouraqui_true_wave-1-600x750.jpeg 600w, https:\/\/wildsuits.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/Martin_chouraqui_true_wave-1-scaled.jpeg 2048w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 840px) 100vw, 840px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\"><strong><em><sub>Martin Chouraqui surfant \u00e0 Teahupoo<\/sub><\/em><\/strong><\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>True Wave, the film, was born<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The True Wave film premiered at the Pont l'Abb\u00e9 cinema in October 2022.
