Not been bodyboarding much for a while but when this kind of waves show up i can not stay outside just watching. Big and messy but we scored some bombs. Thanks for the crew for pushing each other to paddle into the unknown and everyone outside stoked for us. No one got hurt and was a good start session for the slab season. Lets hope this winter bring us more of this and full of riders stoked to go big.

I’m incredibly honored and excited to receive 2nd place in the Mercedes-Benz Nazaré Winter Sessions Contest 2025 @mercedesbenz_pt @meobeachcam . This recognition means more to me than I can express, it’s not just a prize, it’s a celebration of something that started as a hobby, grew into a passion, and eventually became my full-time career and purpose. ❤️

The wave featured in my entry was surfed by @felipecesarano on February 3rd, 2025 a truly unforgettable moment that I had the privilege of capturing.

On that specific day, I wasn’t working with any crew, so I decided to go just for myself. I went with my father to Nazaré, just the two of us, for what would become yet another historic day in Nazaré.

From the very beginning, I poured my heart and soul into capturing the raw beauty of surfing. Every session, every wave, every frame. I gave it everything I had. To see that dedication recognized today is deeply rewarding and gives me even more motivation to keep pushing forward, doing what I truly love.

Nazaré holds a very special place in my heart. Just hearing the word makes my heart race. This village is filled with childhood memories, and it was here, back in 2014, that I first picked up a camera to shoot the waves. That moment sparked something inside me a passion for big waves and the world of surf that never stopped growing. Since then, I’ve been chasing swells, chasing stories, chasing moments.

If surfing hadn’t come into my life, I might never have discovered my true love for videography and photography. Surfing gave me a purpose, a path, and a reason to create. For that, I’ll always be grateful.

Congratulations to all the other winners, your work inspires me. And a huge thank you to the judges and everyone involved in making this contest possible. Your support helps keep the spirit of surf and creativity alive.❤️🔥🙏
