Waxshoe Wahines
It’s a comedic series that flips the script on typical surfers, these Waxshoe Wahines are four diverse, courageous young women who combat crime at their beach, while banging down the doors of injustice that stand in their way.
….
They surf, they skate, and use their unique gifts to solve the mysteries that threaten Sweetwater Beach.
Unwittingly thrown into a caper that threatens to destroy surfing at their home break, four female shredders must work through their irreconcilable differences to bring an evil villain to justice and save the sessions.
….
This comedy begins with a super-secret surf spot, an endless bag of tricks, and four chicks up for some crowdless swell. When a freak storm loosens the boat’s anchor and the girls are left stranded, they stumble upon a high-profile surf wax smuggling scandal with Mayor Smythe at the helm.
With only the resources in their bottomless backpack, their superior wave shredding skills, and a healthy dose of chutzpah, the girl scout, hippie girl, mean girl, and nervous newbie must band together and become the mystery solving sleuths they were always meant to be. This funny, female powered adventure lands somewhere between Charlie’s Angels meets Outer Banks… with some tasty Scooby snacks thrown in for good measure.

Laurel Senick, a writer and filmmaker, developed the premise for this comedic series during a stellar surf session at a not-so-secret surf spot. This pilot would have never become a reality without Ashley Chapman, her podcast co-host, in the co-writer’s seat. Along with co-writing, she teaches freediving and holds multiple world records in the sport. These two ocean-loving comedy writers know how to entertain. Just like their podcast there’s no shortage of campy humor and relationship foibles. Laurel and Ashley hope to encourage and inspire all audiences to get outside and discover their own adventure.
