DeDe Lopez

Davide, a former competitive surfer, was raised on the Italian West Coast. His summers are spent not just running his surf school in Italy but also mastering the little wind swells of the Mediterranean Sea. His years of small wave surfing have polished his technique, making him a true small wave wizard.

During the winters, he loves to travel the world, and following his Obsession with getting barrelled and improving his surfing in tubular waves, he also became an astonishing barrel rider. In his off months, you will find him getting barrelled around the Portuguese West Coast or in Central America in the heaviest possible waves you can score. @dedelopez
