PORTUGAL
Gui Ribeiro
With its consistent beach breaks all year round, Costa da Caparica – just south of Lisbon – is a surfer’s paradise. And for Guilherme Ribeiro, where it all began. Inheriting his father’s passion for surfing, Guilherme rode his first wave at only 3-years-old. Ever since then, being on a surfboard has always felt supernatural to him. Be it with friends or on the World Surf League, the crackerjack Portuguese pro-surfer takes the same pleasure in making a living by just “being himself”. And doing what he does best: exploring new riding techniques, and creating legendary bold moves.
