Hamza is a professional surfer who grew up on the northern coastline of Morocco and lives a simple life close to the ocean. He began surfing when he was seven years old, which began a life dedicated to searching and looking for new surf spots, new waves, new cultures, experiences, and friends. Hamza draws energy and inspiration from the ocean and is never happier when surfing or in the water. It evokes a special feeling within him. ‘Though I have competed many times, and I enjoy all kinds of challenges in my life. I developed Surf Camps to teach others everything I know about surfing and share my experiences. I love to talk stories and share positive vibes about the sport and how hard you must work to achieve your goals and be the best in life that you can be. Surfing makes me happy and keeps me in good health. My body stays strong when I surf, and my mind remains positive and healthy. Surfing is what makes me feel good! When there are no waves, I take the boat with my friends and go fishing. It then becomes about patience and balance.’ Stoked to have Mistral as a sponsor, Hamza comments, ‘I like all the equipment and the good vibes inside the Mistral Team.’
