For Surf Tribe, Vanfleteren travelled the globe for over 18 months to document various troops of surfers, immersing himself in the international surf community. Instead of the stereotypical shots of boards cleaving the waves, Vanfleteren has captured portraits of the surfers away from the action in his well-known black and white style. We see everyone from surfing legends, competitive surfers, young students to surf hippies. While he went to the famous surf havens in places like Hawaii and California, Vanfleteren also ventured to more obscure spots where surfing is entrenched in the way of life. What connects all of these people, is being part of a global culture that deeply respects the ocean. | | | | | |  | | | Tamaroaarii Kalama, Oahu, Hawaii, US surf talent, 2016-2018
