In the 1991 film Point Break, what do the robbers wear during their bank robberies?

The robbers wear ex-president masks during their bank robberies in the 1991 film Point Break.

The gang, led by Bodhi, disguises itself with masks depicting former United States presidents. Their use gives the criminals the nickname “the Ex-Presidents” and becomes one of the movie's most recognizable visual ideas.

Keanu Reeves plays FBI agent Johnny Utah, who goes undercover among surfers while investigating the robberies. Patrick Swayze plays Bodhi, the charismatic leader whose philosophy combines extreme sports with a rejection of ordinary constraints. Kathryn Bigelow directed the film.

Point Break mixes a police investigation with surfing and skydiving action. The presidential masks connect the robberies to the gang's theatrical style: they conceal identities while also turning each crime into a kind of performance. The 2015 remake changed several story details and expanded the action to locations around the world.
