Brazilian Lucas Fink has been skimming waves on his skimboard for several years now.

He had already ridden waves in Nazaré and this season he decided to go to Mavericks and he did. On December 28th he made his debut at Mavericks, and was the first to ride a finless board on the feared wave in northern California.

She got off alone and managed to get out safely through the canal.
