We are extremely excited to announce that we have acquired two new team riders in Portugal.   Portugal represents one of the most progressive skimboard communities in the entire World. Exile is very proud to welcome two brothers of one of the most famous skim families in Europe: The Abrantes brothers.  Andre, 21 and Diogo, 15 will be representing Exile to the fullest in Portugal.  They eat, drink and sleep skimboarding.  Their backyard hosts the beautiful beaches of Ericeira, the home to the best skimboarding conditions in all of Portugal, and possibly even Europe!  

The Abrantes brothers are well known by the entire skim community in Europe and they dedicate much of their time to developing their skills in and out of the water.  

Andre is also a singer in a band that went on to place in the top 40 for the Porguguese American Idol.  Diogo has been winning and doing very well in his age division for years now, and has even stepped up to skim pro in some events.  He was able to take down one of our American stars, Brad Domke in a heat recently. When asked about their choice to go with Exile, they noted that they were stoked to ride for a company that makes the best boards with the best quality.  We are very stoked to welcome both Diogo and Andre to the Exile Family!
