WAVE
Justyna Sniady
ABOUT
Coming from Warsaw, Poland, Justyna’s opportunities to windsurf were far and few between. Obsession took over the moment she learned to plane at the age of 12. It wasn’t until her postgraduate studies in Perth, Australia that she could pursue windsurfing full-time, bringing her passion, positivity, and perseverance to light.
Having faced multiple serious injuries, 15 broken bones, and the possibility of never windsurfing again (hence nicknamed ‘Crashtyna’), Justyna believes in going to the extremes to pursue something you love. She’ll go the extra mile just to find perfect conditions for a day, being at just the right place at just the right time. With her head held high, there’s no doubt that Justyna’s stoke, energy, and smiles are both inspiring and contagious.

She put in the hours and the bruises, and the rest was history, with a breakthrough year in 2019, coming in 3rd Overall in the PWA Wave World Tour. She’s excited to keep leading the pack for female windsurfers, making the most of North’s 3Di sails, which she deems her competitive advantage.
