João Vítor de Azeredo Chianca, sometimes known as Chumbinho, is a Brazilian professional surfer on the World Surf League tour, born in Saquarema on August 30, 2000. He is the younger brother of Lucas Chumbo and the son of Gustavo Chumbão. After debuting on the elite tour in 2022 and losing his place at the mid-season cut, he requalified through the Challenge Series and returned to the Championship Tour in 2023, when he took two third places in the opening Hawaii events and won his first tour victory at the MEO Rip Curl Pro Portugal, beating Jack Robinson in the final. He finished fourth at the 2023 WSL Finals and qualified for the 2024 Olympic Games in Paris. A head injury kept him out of the start of the 2024 season, and he received a season wildcard for 2025.
