Pete Cabrinha’s life long dedication to surfing and the arts is a journey which has gained him personal success and worldwide acclaim. International awards in Surfing (XXL Biggest Wave Award), Windsurfing (WSMA World Champion), and Kitesurfing (IDEA Design Innovation Award) have put Pete into an exclusive list of world class water sports athletes.
His pioneering contributions in Windsurfing, Towsurfing, Kitesurfing, and Foilboarding have redefined what it is to be a surfer in the 21st century.
Pete’s lifestyle as a water sports athlete and artist, allows him to navigate life with one foot in the sand and one foot on the studio. He is continually inspired – not only by the ocean and the people of his Hawaiian birthplace but by the rich cultural traditions of the world. This dynamic lends a unique flair to his mixed media art works.
Pete lives in Haiku, Maui with his wife Lisa and his daughter Tahiti.
