"I love surfing but the ocean water in California is too cold so I feel a bit limited."
MY STORY
Murilo was born in the beach city of Santos (Brazil) on 11/19/2012. He was introduced to surfing by his father when he used to own a Surfing School. The family's passion for the sport motivated Murilo to get intimate with the water and helped a lot his physical development.
He begins to show some interest in skateboarding at 2 years old. Less than a year later, he's already dropping into his first bowl in Bertioga (their hometown at the time). From then on he never stopped practicing and trying to find new skate parks which represented a huge step in his evolution.
In 2017, a San Diego local skateboard brand invites Murilo and his family to spend some time in California. Watching his skills skyrocket shortly after they relocate and considering all the opportunities and possibilities of a better future for their son in the sport, the family puts a halt to their lives in Brazil and decides to stay in San Diego for good.
They hope to find partnerships that shares the same values and beliefs in Murilo's promising future, respecting his age and flow above all.
