This is a beauty.... for real... the number 1 board of 20 is right on top of my sofa, and every time I walk by, I kind of stop and look at this graceful board.

First thanks is to Felipe Siebert. Such a young man with so much talent and skills... he's a young master of building this hollow wood surfboards.... they are so complex and so simple at the same time...

Second thanks... Jesse Ledoux... one of the nicest logos I ever saw, and it's for this board... tells everything... it's such an honor to have this made from him that it's kind of hard to believe...

Third thanks.... Dustin Ortiz... like Felipe's board.... so simple and so complex at the same time... thank you my brother...

It will be only 20 boards made from this design, all signed and numbered... Unique pieces...

Felipe is trying to arrange a way to export his boards, but until then, you can only purchase locally....

Anyways, please check Felipe's work at http://siebertsurfboards.blogspot.com/ and http://www.siebertsurfboards.com/

Love to all...

Jamie Brisick in Santos!!!!

What an honor!

Saturday I received an email from Jamie Brisick saying that he was in Sao Paulo and would love to come to the beach to try to surf and to meet me in person.

So, today at lunch time he arrived, had lunch at the amazing restaurant and club Bikkini Barista, then surf, then gave interview to waves.com.br, then went to drink some beers with me. It was unreal, and I'm so stoked that I have the oportunity to meet him in person.

Above is him with Pardhal on the most famous street in Santos Downtown, with the Coffee Museum on the end of the street.

Priceless....
