Nicolau (or ‘Nic’) von Rupp and Frederico Morais (also known as ‘Kikas’) are two of the best Portuguese surfers today, the first in free surf mode and the second in the competitive side.
Longtime friends, they both grew up with the dream – meanwhile made reality – of becoming professional surfers: Nic became one of the most respected big (and heavy!) wave surfers in the world and ‘Kikas’ is part of the main division of the World Surf League.
When these two first-rate athletes come together in Baía dos Coxos (place of the queen of the Portuguese coast), on one of the best days of the year, magic happens in the form of mind-boggling drops and epic tubes!
