Cheers to Piccinaglia Federico who's journey in the water began back in 1988, when he first started surfing. What began as curiosity quickly turned into a lifelong passion. Over the decades, surfing has shaped not only how he spends his time, but how Piccinaglia views the world, teaching patience, respect for nature, and the importance of persistence.
In 2006, Federico expanded that passion by getting into stand up paddle surfing. That transition opened up a new dimension of connection with the ocean. It challenged him in different ways and brought a fresh perspective to his time on the water, blending balance, strength, and flow in a unique experience.
Surfing has taken Piccinaglia to many places, but Varazze remains one of those spots that truly captures the spirit of what he lsove about the sport. Whether it’s early morning sessions or long days chasing the right conditions, every moment out there continues to fuel his passion.
Federico says "he has always had a deep love for Session Magazine, so being able to share my story here means a lot to me. The photos I’m submitting were taken in Varazze, Italy, a place that has become very special to me over the years. The coastline, the atmosphere, and the waves there all come together in a way that feels both powerful and inspiring."
