In this episode of Podcast Portugal, we sit down with Helder from Volcom Europe for an inspiring and unexpected journey—from his childhood move from Angola to Portugal at age 10, to the golden era of the early surfing scene in Carcavelos and Cascais.


Helder reflects on how time in the army and dedication to Cevat martial arts shaped his mindset, and how that discipline blended with creativity in his path into the world of surf.


We explore the philosophy behind the Volcom brand, its artistic roots in Dadaism, and its unwavering support for young athletes across Europe. Helder gives us a glimpse into how surf and street culture evolved in Portugal—and why authenticity still matters.


Whether you're a surf enthusiast, brand creative, or just love a good backstory, this episode hits the sweet spot between grit, art, and wave-riding freedom.
