Deze week heeft de huidige PWA, Europees en Werelkampioen Formula windsurfen bij de dames, de poolse Dorota Staszewska zich aangesloten bij het succesvolle Gaastra Team.

Dorota zal zich natuurlijk ook bezig gaan houden met de product ontwikkeling, wat hoogstwaarschijnlijk interessante producten voor dames op kan gaan leveren.

Dorota: "Formula Windsurfing gained its popularity, but it needs a lot more commitment to make it grow in future. Coming to the Gaastra team I have chance to fill the gap for strong female part to push the sport harder. My windsurfing career would not be possible without my parents and my brother's patience with me, and help of many sponsors. I would like to thank Neil Pryde for our last three years, which enabled me to climb to the top".

Gaastra 'The Team' teamrider Matt Pritchard: "We are very excited to welcome Dorota to Gaastra. Her performance in women's racing is an inspiration to all of us, and we are proud to support Dorota. We want to encourage more women to get into the sport of windsurfing, and feel that supporting Dorota is a step in the right direction. Her goodwill reaches far beyond the race course".

Nu nog niet, maar binnenkort kun je op de vernieuwde website van Gaastra alles lezen en vragen aan Dorota over haar sponsorwissel.
