Nick Uricchio is the Co-Founder of Semente Surfboards. Nick grew up in Connecticut and moved out to California when he was 10. At 15 in high school he started surfing with friends at Huntington Beach. After finishing school in 78 Nick took off backpacking around Europe. The last stop of the trip he found himself in Lisbon, Portugal. His rail pass had ran out and the uncrowded waves lured him to stay in Carcavelos for a few months.
In 1980 Nick moved to Costa da Caparica close to Lisbon with António Pereira Caldas they started Lipsticks Surfboards one of the first surfboard manufacturers in Portugal. 2 years later he partnered with his good friend Miguel Katzenstein to create Semente Surfboards. The plan was all about lifestyle and surfing the best waves in the country. So they set up shop in the surf mecca of Ericeira. The rest is history. Nick went on to become one of the most successful shapers in Portugal. Working with the best surfers in the country as well as top pro surfers passing through.
