About the shaper
Johnny Cabianca
Based out of Zarautz in the Basque Country, Cabianca Surfboards is the home of Brazilian shaper Johnny Cabianca.
Originally from the iconic surf town of Maresias near São Paolo, Johnny started shaping surfboards professionally in 1981, and hasn’t stopped since.
A background in Industrial Design and encyclopedic knowledge of surfboard shaping, materials and technology is what sets Cabianca’s boards apart.
Meanwhile, his long relationship with three-time world champion Gabriel Medina has helped bring our attention to this world-class shaper.
