Amado Vrieswijk joins North Windsurfing

13/02/2026

With you, we continue

North Windsurfing has made a big splash in the transfer market by signing Amado Vrieswijk. The rider from Bonaire, already crowned freestyle world champion in 2021 and slalom world vice-champion in 2023, joins Pierre Mortefon (see our article of 28 January 2026) to form an ambitious duo on the world circuit. At 30 years of age, NB-20 has made his intentions clear: to aim for world titles in slalom, foil and fin in the coming seasons.

This transfer marks a strategic step in his career. Recognised as one of the most versatile windsurfers of his generation, he now wants to establish himself at the top of the racing world. His choice is part of a long-term progression strategy. The technical environment and culture of development at North should provide a conducive setting for refining his equipment and optimising his performance in the face of ever-increasing competition.

The partnership with Pierre Mortefon, a leading figure in modern slalom, also opens up new prospects. Although they have not yet actually worked together, the complementary nature of their skills seems obvious. The objective is clear: to pool their experience and feedback from the field in order to accelerate the development of sails and further raise the team's level of competitiveness.
While racing remains his priority, Amado Vrieswijk will also continue to be involved in developing the brand's freestyle range. A one-off return to the PWA World Tour is not out of the question, provided it does not interfere with his racing programme. For 2026, the roadmap is clear: go for the win and turn his potential into world titles.
