“Sharing your surfboard with another person is magical,” explains Gabriella Cardoso (@gabiduda.surfduplo). “You have to be in complete harmony.” She and her boyfriend, designer Eduardo Lima, tandem surf — a Hawaiian sport where two surfers balance on the same board while performing tricks and stunts.
“We need to have perfect movements to help one another,” Gabriella says. “It’s a really fun sport that brings us even closer together.” The Rio de Janeiro couple have attracted a following during their training sessions on the Macumba and Barra da Tijuca beaches. “We want to gain new fans and, maybe one day, host a competition,” says Gabriella.
