José Liberato is the creative mind behind Decade Surfboards, a Portuguese surfboard brand. Hailing from Portugal, his love for surfing sparked a desire to delve into the art of surfboard construction.

Before venturing into the world of surfboards, Liberato pursued a career as an architect. This profession instilled in him a deep appreciation for design, aesthetics, and the symbiotic relationship between form and function.

In the initial phase of his creative exploration, he started a blog that served as a platform to explore the connection between architecture and surfing. The blog served as a means to express his ideas, inspirations, and visions about the harmonious interaction between both worlds.

As the blog gained prominence and captured the attention of like-minded individuals, Liberato realized that he could bring his vision to life in tangible form. Inspired by the fusion of his architectural background with his unwavering passion for surfing, he embarked on a new chapter - the creation of Decade Surfboards.

In January 2015, Decade Surfboards was born. The primary goal was to create surfboards that brought together the best of both worlds, blending timeless aesthetics with high-performance functionality. Each board became an embodiment of his passion for design, meticulously crafted to provide an unparalleled experience in the water.

With meticulous attention to detail and a commitment to quality, Decade Surfboards quickly gained recognition and a faithful following. Surfers and enthusiasts from around the world were captivated by the distinct designs and exceptional performance offered by Liberato's designs. Each creation bore the mark of his architectural background, harmoniously merging innovative design elements with the inherent requirements of surfboard construction.

Today, Decade Surfboards stands as a testament to Liberato's passion, creativity, and constant pursuit of excellence and evolution, pushing the boundaries of surfboard design and leaving a mark on the surfing community.

Looking ahead to the future, he's excited to continue exploring the ever-evolving relationship between architecture, design, and surfing. With each new board, he seeks to unlock new possibilities, inspire surfers, and contribute to an enhanced surfing experience for everyone.
