Transfer Season

After just missing out on the overall podium in 2023 and '24, Lisa Kloster (Starboard / Sailloft Hamburg went one place better last season as she completed the prestigious overall top three in Freestyle for the first time in her career after producing a standout display in Fuerteventura. That performance has earned the 26-year-old a move to Starboard for the next season and you can hear from Lisa below:

Lisa Kloster upon joining the Starboard Team: "I’m super stoked to join the Starboard team. In summer 2025 I only had a few days to adapt to the Ignite before the PWA stop on Fuerte and straightaway I landed on my first podium with it! That already says a lot. The board gives me so much speed and control, whether it’s flat water or heavy chop. Riding switch, accelerating, popping for big moves just feels easier. I’m really proud to ride for one of the best brands in the sport and be part of such a strong team.

Starboard Marketing Manage, Martin Ferrand: "We’re excited to welcome Lisa Kloster to Starboard, a rider whose commitment to progression and performance aligns perfectly with our vision. We look forward to supporting her next chapter on the PWA World Tour."
