TRISTE NOUVELLE
 
Les Fédération Française, Portugaise et Européenne de Surf sont tristes de vous informer de la disparition d’une des légendes du surf portugais, Vinicio- Vinnie.Vinicio-Vinnie, pour ses amis, était l’un des pionniers du surf au Portugal. Il était également l’un des membres fondateurs de la Fédération Portugaise de Surf (FPS) et de « Surf Association of Aveiro ».
 
De 1993 à 1995, il présida l’Association Européenne de Surf. Il fut aussi à de nombreuses reprises le sélectionneur national de l’équipe Portugaise, ainsi que le président du Comité d’Arbitrage de la Fédération Portugaise de Surf. Vinicio-Vinnie n’a jamais hésité à offrir et partager toute sa connaissance et son expérience du surf, pour voir évoluer au mieux cette pratique qu'il adorait tant.
 
La Fédération Française de Surf et tous ses membres présentent leurs plus sincères condoléances à sa famille et ses proches.
Les funérailles se tiendront samedi 24 mars à l’église de la Miséricorde, Vila do Conde, Portugal.
