The Fastest Surfer In The World - Brazil's Filipe Toledo // All The 9s Since '17

Filipe Toledo has thoroughly earned that title, which once belonged to Rob Machado, since arriving on the scene more than a decade ago. The son of two-time Brazilian national surfer Ricardo Toledo, Filipe learned to surf in Ubatuba, just north of Sao Paolo, and is one of the most exciting surfers on the planet in waves under six-foot.

After qualifying for the World Tour in 2013, Filipe has gone on to win 17 major ‘CT events, including back-to-back World Championships at the Rip Curl WSL Finals in 2022 and 2023 at Lower Trestles, in his second home, San Clemente, where Filipe his wife, kids, and family have lived for more than a decade.

Known for his technical, explosive performances at waves like Jeffreys Bay, Snapper Rocks, and his backyard at Lower Trestles, Filipe took this year off tour to prepare mentally and physically for Teahupo’o this summer.

With Joao Chianca and Gabriel Medina in his corner at the 2024 Paris Games, Filipe and Team Brazil will be eager to defend the country’s Gold Medal, won by Italo Ferriera in 2020.
