As a Portuguese free surfer, Miguel represents the Old Continent in the world scene…and do it freely, carving his own path!
Originally from Cascais, close to Lisbon, Miguel has laid his board bags in Ericeira, where he resides in between trips. Apart from "watching the waves from my window", he loves the relatively young surf culture of the town and gets involved in the local community. He joined Save the Waves and, with the help of this association, achieved to include the marine zone of Ericeira in the list of World Surfing Reserves. His love of nature undoubtedly springs from his childhood and his surfing career.
As an independent French brand, our goal is to support the European surf scene. We have the most beautiful waves, from the smallest to the biggest, a pool of talented young surfers, and a rich and varied culture fed by different countries. Miguel Blanco is the perfect ambassador to represent this spirit. ¡Bem-vido ao team OXBOW!
