Ventura California native, pro longboarder and Patagonia brand ambassador, Mary Osborne tells the story of growing up in Ventura California and takes us on an epic journey, off the grid, to The Channel Islands National Park. Just a 45 minute boat ride from Ventura, The Channel Islands are close to the mainland, but world’s apart offering spectacular hikes, diving, sea cave kayaking excursions and camping. “This place is truly a definition of adventure…you know there’s a history here that lies in the wind and in the air, you can feel it when you step on land, its a special feeling that only you can get when you’re actually on the island.” - Mary Osborne We fell in love with these islands, to learn more about how you can experience the magic of this special place, visit: http://www.visitventuraca.com https://www.nps.gov/chis/ A COMPASS COALITION ORIGINAL STORY BY Mary Osborne & Compass Coalition http://maryosbornesurf.com/ http://www.compasscoalition.com AERIAL PHOTOGRAPHY Dominique Claessens CONSULTING PRODUCER Stephen Amstutz COMPOSERS John Kaefer http://www.johnkaefer.com Aaron Gilmartin http://www.aarongilmartin.com SOUND MIX Aaron Gilmartin ORIGINAL "OFFSHORE" ARTWORK Jared Kohn http://www.mountainlines.co.za BOAT TRANSPORTATION PROVIDED BY Island Packers http://www.islandpackers.com CAMP GEAR AND KAYAKS PROVIDED BY Channel Island Outfitters http://www.channelislandso.com ISLAND MEALS PROVIDED BY Channel Island Provisioners http://www.cip.biz SPECIAL THANKS Mary Osborne, Taylor Bruynzeel, Jenny Arellano Donovan, Marlyss Auster, Fiorella Calderoni, Yvonne Menard, Mike Laan, Dave Osborne, Neal Rosenthal, Garret Kababik Visit Ventura, Channel Islands National Park Services, Patagonia Ventura, Fletcher Chouinard Designs. http://www.compasscoalition.com
