Last summer the Latin America skate team made a trip to Southern California to hit all of the classic spots they’ve seen in videos. Among the squad was Akira Shiroma from Brazil, Bralio Sagas from Chile, Jhancarlos Gonzalez from Colombia and Michael Scott from Mexico. They met up with other Volcom riders such as Omar Hassan, CJ Collins and Collin Provost during the week they were here and needless to say they were all impressed on what the Latin team put down!
Kalani Lattanzi is a waterman who rides big waves without a board. Watch him in action at some of the world’s heaviest spots. He’s just 23-years-old, but has taken an ancient sport – bodysurfing – and brought it to some of the biggest and heaviest waves on the planet, from Hawaii to his home in Brazil and the current darling of the big-wave world, Nazaré in Portugal. Yes, you’re reading correctly, he bodysurfs big waves. Really, really big waves.
