Yeah, Good for him. Never heard anything bad about him or SE. Seems to have been under the feet of local rippers since the early 90's. Surely just a matter of getting Filipe on them and let digital & social media do its thing.

edit: or maybe there's a $200m heiress backing him now! :p
I'm happy they're killing it, but the popularity is killing their production time. I was just quoted 4-5 months. My first board from them took 2 weeks.

He's can't be over 5'5 and that particular style of shaping as mentioned previous is very different than his previous shapers.

Have heard he indeed goes where the free boards though.

Brazilians.

Judging from the fact the Rusty team has been majority Brazilian on and off over the past few years their market must be pretty decent there (?)
I like how Caio doesn't give a sh!t about the brazzo entourage and seems to do his own thing (Might be wrong here, just an impression).

He really, really rips the face of the wave and is gnarly in the barrel. He would probably be better rated if he were Medina's BFF, but he doesn't seem to GAF.
