Parajuru
Parajuru is a small village located about 130 km south of Fortaleza. What makes this spot different from the other lagoons in Cerea, is that there are barely any crowds.

Strapless Upwind 360
This is another fun strapless move to try on the flats, which you can take out into the waves. As the name suggests the idea here is to turn yourself and the board up into the wind, and keep going so that you come out having not moved or changed your feet and still going in the same direction –...
