Apple TV+ is getting into the surf scene.

The company announced today that an upcoming seven-part documentary series will be premiering later this month and the series is about surfing. The upcoming series titled “Make or Break” will give an up-close and personal look at the world of competitive surfing. Each of the episodes will follow one of the most talented surfers on the planet as they navigate the competitive surfing scene. The ins and outs of the WSL Championship Tour will be on full display.

This series will be a good way for the WSL and the sport of surfing to get right into the homes of those not familiar with the competition side of surfing. The series is set to debut globally on Friday, April 29, on Apple TV+. The program has already been green-lit for an early season two renewal.
