Italo Ferreira is a supremely exciting surfer. If there is a person on earth who personifies the word “froth,” it’s him. He’s like a pinball, bouncing off the walls, sprinting from place to place, surfing waves with frenetic energy he seems to have boundless reserves of. Italo is a man who really, really loves to ride waves.
“When I saw that the waves would be incredible and were marching towards Portugal,” Ferreira wrote, “I didn’t think twice. I accepted the invitation of my friend, Marcelo Buchecha, and took the opportunity to get a ticket to Europe.”
Italo isn’t a small wave surfer. He’s not a big wave surfer, either. Italo is just a surfer — big waves, small waves, everything in between, and the biggest of the big, Italo wants to surf it. He puts in the work, puts in the time, and as you can see from the video above, it really pays off.
