Our team

Fred has that easy manner who made surfing his lifestyle. He fell in love with the sport at the age of 7, when he moved to Itacaré and won a surfing board from his father. He surfed throughout his childhood and adolescence, competing in local championships until he was 18 years old. He started as a cameraman at EasyDrop at the age of 17, where he had his first contact with surf teaching. Also to be an instructor since 2005, he is a championship judge trained by the Bahia Surfing Federation.

Known for his unmistakable style and the playlists that make the crowd go wild, Junio dos Santos started surfing at the age of 10, and, since then, the sport has become his life. Born and raised in Itacaré, he participated in championships from 12 to 19 years old and became a surf teaching specialist at EasyDrop in 2012. His main values are humility and dedication, and his greatest gratitude is to see the smile on the students' faces.
