Bourez was born on the island of Rurutu in the Tuamotus Islands in French Polynesia and started surfing at age 13.[2] European champion in 2006, Michel entered the ASP World Tour in 2009.[3]
His best results on the World Tour came in 2014, with a fifth place in the overall classification, having won twice during the year; at Margaret River Pro 2014[4] and Rio de Janeiro[5] and third place in Fiji Pro.[6]
His 2015 season was hampered by a severe injury in May, when doing a free surf session at Teahupoo. A fractured hand and cervical vertebra forced him out of the Rio and Fiji events.[7]
In 2016, he earned his third career victory at the Billabong Pipeline Masters, final event of the 2016 World Tour, finishing sixth overall.[8][9]
