In 1979, the then 13-year-old Italian Claudio Brunotti was looking for the perfect wind and waves. He found these ultimate – windsurfing – conditions in Dutch surf spot Scheveningen. He fell in love with the Dutch vibe and the possibility to do all board sports. He thought white surfboards were boring so Claudio started shaping his own colourful boards in Scheveningen.
Soon the Italian master – board – chef became well-known for his shapes. His passion for all types of board sports and his sense of style, colour and Italian craftsmanship were unique. Brunotti expanded into a large board sports brand.
