In the animated film Surf’s Up 2: WaveMania Full Movie Free, we follow the journey of a teenage northern rockhopper penguin named Cody Maverick. Living in obscurity on Pen Gu Island, Cody has established his own surf school, teaching children the art of surfing alongside his friend, the gentoo penguin Lani Aliikai. However, their peaceful existence is challenged by Cody’s rival, Tank Evans, who also runs a surf school.
Cody Maverick is not just any penguin; he is passionate about surfing and dedicated to sharing that passion with the younger generation. His surf school attracts many eager students, but the competition with Tank Evans adds a layer of tension to his life. Meanwhile, Cody’s best friend, Chicken Joe, a world-famous surfer known as “El Pollo Loco,” is traveling the globe, competing in various surfing competitions.
As fate would have it, Chicken Joe decides to visit Pen Gu Island, coinciding with the arrival of “The Hang 5,” a team of extreme surfers and thrill-seekers. This eclectic group includes the giant otter Mr. McMahon, puffin Paige, and penguins J.C., The Undertaker, and Hunter, along with their enthusiastic announcer, Seagull. Cody, a long-time fan of The Hang 5, invites them to his home and throws a party in their honor.
During the party, Mr. McMahon reveals that The Hang 5 is on a quest to find a mythical surf spot known as “The Trenches,” where they hope to ride a massive 50-foot rogue wave. He also shares that he is looking for a replacement as he plans to retire. As the night unfolds, both Cody and Tank vie for the chance to be Mr. McMahon’s successor, while Chicken Joe is randomly selected as a candidate, much to everyone’s surprise.
The group embarks on their adventure, leaving Pen Gu Island atop a whale. Their journey takes them through a desert, where they encounter quicksand, and eventually into a jungle where they decide to rest for the night. The next day, they stumble upon a temple that holds the remnants of an ancient penguin civilization that revered surfing.
As they explore the temple, Tank discovers a golden surfboard, igniting a competitive spirit among the group. Cody suggests using improvised hang gliders combined with surfboards to cross a lava lake, but his bickering with Tank nearly leads to disaster when he almost knocks Chicken Joe into the lava. This incident causes tension within the group, leading to harsh words directed at Cody, who feels immense guilt and decides to leave the group overnight.

While Cody is away, the rest of the group reflects on their behavior, especially J.C., who regrets telling Cody he would never fit in. They realize that without Cody’s ingenuity, they would not have crossed the lava lake. Meanwhile, Cody discovers more hieroglyphs that depict the tragic fate of the civilization’s champion, which motivates him to return and warn his friends.
As Cody races back to warn Chicken Joe and Lani, The Hang 5 arrives at The Trenches. In a shocking turn of events, Seagull is struck by lightning, leading Lani to deduce that the “RTL” catchphrase of The Hang 5 refers to “ride the lightning,” a dangerous act of surfing during a thunderstorm. While Lani declines membership due to the inherent risks, Chicken Joe accepts an honorary membership, and Tank reluctantly agrees to “RTL” for the fame and fortune.
As they prepare to ride the colossal rogue wave, lightning rages overhead. In a moment of fear, Tank abandons the group, while The Hang 5 skillfully maneuvers through the storm. However, disaster strikes when the Undertaker is struck by lightning and falls into the water. Fortunately, he is rescued by Paige and J.C., who bring him to shore, where Chicken Joe uses jellyfish stings to revive him.
Just when it seems all hope is lost, Cody returns to rescue Tank, showcasing his bravery and selflessness. Mr. McMahon, impressed by Cody’s actions, invites him to join The Hang 5, but Cody declines
