After 14 years Marcos Mota left Brazil to discover new opportunities. He moved to Europe, where he has been building boards for the top international brands: Al Merrick / Channel Islands, …Lost! / Mayhem, Chris Christensen, Bob Mctavish, and Pukas.

In 2020 he moved to Denmark to marry his danish girlfriend and to raise his new son Logan. Now living in Klitmøller, he is establishing his brand Mota Surfboards as the first pro-shaper ever based in the country. He builds Surfboard „Made in Denmark“ with the focus on hand shaping, sustainability and highest quality.
