Tiago Pires Signs With Quiksilver
Tiago Pires Signs 10yr Deal with Quiksilver
Soft boards dot net – Tiago Pires team Chilli rider has signed a long term deal with Quiksilver for 10 years. Tiago who will be in his fourth season as an ASP surfer signed the deal with the surf industry powerhouse where he had this to say: “It’s official. I’m part of the Quiksilver family from today and on for the next ten years…”
Tiago made his debut back when he was a grommet surfing for Quiksilver and this new contract sees him return to the Quiksilver family. A leading figure of the Portuguese surfing scene, the charismatic ASP surfer has produced a string of highlights with none more memorable than his triumph over Kelly Slater in Bali during 2008 season. By rejoining Quiky he is now reaquainted with the iconic surfing brand that supported him when he first joined the professional ranks.

Tiago’s decision to sign this 10 year deal with Quiksilver was as a result of his close relationship with now fellow Quiksilver team mates, Miky Picon, Jeremy Flores and Aritz Aranburu. These guys have traveled and trained together and between them have been a large influence in the development of the professional European surfing scene.
Tiago Pires, being the first Portuguese surfer to qualify for the now slimmed down ASP World Tour which boasts the top 34 mens surfing elite, will have added inspiration joining the Quiksilver team that already has Kelly Slater, Dane Reynolds and Jeremy Flores in its stable.
At the age of 30, Tiago has had a hugely successful career during his four years surfing against the worlds top surfers, having achieved 4 tour victories and produced some outstanding performances. We at Soft Boards dot net wish the charismatic “Portuguese Tiger” all the very best for the future.
