Johnny Cabianca
Cabianca
Cabianca Surfboards began in the late 70s, when Johnny Cabianca discovered surfing on the beaches near São Paulo, Brazil. Passion met a talent for design: he started shaping under his own Summer Birds label and, after a degree in industrial design, spent three decades learning alongside iconic shapers in Hawaii, Brazil and Europe.

In 1997 he shaped a funboard for a four-year-old from Maresias. In 2009 the partnership became real: Gabriel Medina won the King of the Groms on his first Cabianca shortboard. Today Gabriel is a 3-time WSL world champion, and the DFK 2.0 and Medina Pro models are the brand's top sellers.

That world-tour feedback loop is what shapes the whole range. What works under Medina gets tested, refined and translated into boards for surfers who don't have a pro's schedule. Competition-bred design, made rideable.

In 2016 Johnny opened his own shaping and research facility in Zarautz, Spain, where he still spends his days refining his craft. Any Cabianca board can be custom-ordered and shaped to your waves and your surfing.

TAX REFUND - TAX FREE SHOPPING

Did you know that if you reside outside the European Union you are entitled to a refund of the VAT (Value Added Tax) paid in our store?

When paying for purchases over 61,50 EUR, ask for a Global Blue Tax Free Form and, on the day of departure, get everything taken care of at the airport.


Tax Free Shopping in 3 steps:

1. Form Issuance: when shopping in our store, you will pay full amount (including VAT) and get a Global Blue Tax-Free Form. Fill out the form with the required information.

2. Customs Validation: at the airport, when leaving the EU, go to the nearest Customs or self- validation Kiosk and present your filled-out Tax Free Form, passport, and original purchase receipts for validation. Goods should be kept unused and available for inspection.

3. VAT Tax Refund: add your payment details online to receive the refund automatically. If you prefer, find a nearby Refund Office displaying the Global Blue star logo, present your validated Tax Free Form and passport, and receive your refund in cash. The refund paid is the VAT value deducted from Global Blue's service fee.
