Lay Day-
At "lay days" of competitions I used to go to Barra da Tijuca, to take some photos, watch surf free sessions and so on..
So this day at beginning of afternoon I was going to Quebra-Mar to take some photos exactly when Gabriel Medina(BRA) and his friends were leaving his apartment in front of the event structure.
I did not disturb Gabriel anyway in his rest time, I just shake his hand and said:
Vamos ganhar!!! -Let's win, will you???
And he answered: "Beleza" - Nice!!!
At this moment I was using my luck cap of 2009 WCT Hang Loose and my Rip Curl back pack.
Maybe he tought I was referring about the World Championship not to the 4th stop in Rio.(post in May )
I had my cell with me but I did not ask for a photo or anything else. He was calm, nice and simpatic
with me and with everybody else, he has the champion features...
So I went to Quebra-Mar so happy because I had the opportunity to shake Gabriel's hand and I desired all luck and good vibes of the world for him...
May 11th, 2014

Travis Logie(SAF) 15.50 x 15.00 Gabriel Medina(BRA)
Gabriel Medina(BRA)generally was at beginning of the rounds, but this time I could take some photos but unfortunatelly he loose to Travis Logie(SAF)a good surfer too.
After Billabong Rio Pro 2014
Gabriel Medina(BRA) won in Fiji Pro and Billabong Pro Tahiti.
I thought to myself Gabriel may be the WCT surf champion this year...
Charles, his stepfather said: Gabriel will be the champion this year, and he WAS.
He took the Brazilian's flag to the top in the surfing world...
Even the great champions: kelly Slater, Mick Fanning recognized Gabriel Medina as the Great Surfing Champion of 2014.
For my blog and all surfing community in Brazil, it was so wonderfull Gabriel became the first Surfing World Champion.
Gabriel Medina(BRA) was the first now but may come others of Brazilian storm generation.
I could not anyway forget Alejo Muniz(BRA)athlete from Santa Catarina that always was so nice with me who defeated Kelly Slater(USA) in Round 3; and Mick Fanning(AUS) in Round 5 both rivals of Gabriel Medina(BRA) in Pipeline Hawaii, USA.
My special congratulations to Alejo Muniz(BRA) who soon will be back to surf elite, for sure.
I really love my job, and I hope "My god" give me health to continue working with surf -"the most beautiful sport in the world"

May 09th, 2012 - Lay Day
I did not know Gabriel Medina yet!!!
I caught a bus to Recreio dos Bandeirantes, and walked away to Prainha(700 meters of beautiful and cult beach)
Somebody else told me Gabriel Medina will be there for a free surfing session.
There I knew two girls from Maresias, São Sebastião(SP), the town of Gabriel Medina. He already had won two WCTs(see the blog).
I stayed on the shore talking with the Maresias' girls awaiting for Gabriel Medina(BRA)leave the water, when the girls said to me: Gabriel used to surf for a long time.
I became upset because in fact I would like to know Gabriel personally but there was no bus from Prainha to Recreio and could be longer time and get dark so I decided to give up for awhile and wait next opportunity in 2012 WCT in Brazil to finally Know Medina.

A TRIBUTE TO RICARDO DOS SANTOS
A TRIBUTE TO RICARDO DOS SANTOS(BRA)
I entered in the surfing world community in 2008 in Rosa Beach, Imbituba (SC) in a "Seletiva Petrobras de Surf Masculino" when the speaker of the event looked at me and said -"Welcome to surfing community!!!".
It was my first contact with surf competitions, surfers, and surfboards, and so on...
I had a Nokia 6225i with 640x480 resolution and was taking some photos and filming (25 seconds!!!), when I saw a tall man and I said:
You really have a nice camera with canon and everything...I had no idea who was that photographer..
He said to me:" If you like this, go ahead, take your time..."
That nice tall man was Mr. Sebastian Rojas, one of the best surfing photografers in the world.
I will never forget his words.
Messias Felix, a great surfer from Ceará, won this event.
I have no much resources by the way, but I really love my job, with images, colors, nature, and so on...
So in 2008 October I went to my first WCT -World Championship Tour- on the Praia da Vila, Imbituba, SC by Hang Loose. Bede Durbidge(AUS)nice and strong surfer won this competition over Jeremy Flores(FRA).
I from the southern Brazil, Porto Alegre(RS), so in 2009 I returned to Garopaba, Santa Catarina. I used to stay in an small apartment close to Mormaii store where I always was so welcome by everybody.
Kelly Slater(USA), the great surfing champion (11x) defeated Adriano de Souza(BRA)at tought final in Praia da Vila, exactly in my birthday, July 3rd...This day I bought the event cap, that I still use in all surfing events.
In 2010 I returned again to Garopaba, Santa Catarina, by bus and stayed at same place.. I used to catch the first bus in the morning to Imbituba...
This WCT was Billabong Pro Santa Catarina and unfortunatelly I missed to meet the great surfing champion Andy Irons that died this year...
Jadson Andre(BRA)defeated Kelly Slater(USA) at a great final at Vila...My first photo at this event was exactly of Jadson Andre(BRA)and I was at Billabong front page with some guys on the beach with Jadson Andre what let me so happy.
In 2011 the WCT came to Rio - Barra da Tijuca - Posto 4 and Arpoador.
Adriano de Souza(BRA)won this event with the final at Arpoador, over Taj Burrow(AUS)one of the best surfers in the world, always in the top.
My first photo was of Adriano de Souza, that always attended me very well.
In 2012 I came again to Rio de Janeiro and John John Florence(HAW) won this event over Joel Parkinson(AUS), John John Florence(HAW)with a fan was my first photo in Barra da Tijuca, Postinho.
In 2013, year that I took two pictures of RICARDINHO DOS SANTOS, when he was entering the water at heat 3 of Round 1. Let's remind about!
