With 20 years of kitesurfing experience, Andrade is a true waterman and one of the most respected locals from Preá Beach. Son of a fisherman, he grew up with the wind and sea as his playground. Today, he’s a top-level coach specializing in strapless freestyle and wave riding, guiding riders to push their limits with style and flow. Ranked among the Top 3 athletes in the Brazilian national kitesurfing tour, Andrade brings not only skill but deep local knowledge and soul to every adventure.

Eliton has been riding the wind for over 15 years, and for the past 6, he’s been fully dedicated to the art of hydrofoil. A true adventurer at heart, in 2019 he completed a 518 km downwinder from Marudá (PA) to Macapá (AP) on a twin-tip, without any boat support. In 2021, he took on an impressive hydrofoil upwind from Macapá (AP) to Afuá (PA). The following year, he crossed from Chaves (PA) to Macapá (AP) in just 2 hours and 21 minutes. In 2023, he made his dream come true: a survival-style kite journey from Natal (RN) to Macapá (AP), covering an epic 2,612 km. And in 2024, he set off solo once again — this time from Chaves (PA) to Bailique (AP), reaching the mouth of the Amazon River. Eliton is pure passion for the wind, the sea, and the endless horizon.
