The 2023 iQFOiL World Championships » Starboard Windsurfing

The Men’s division

Luuc Van Opzeeland claimed the World Title in front of our Starboard Team rider Sebastian Koerdel, who finished in 2nd place in the Men’s division. Nicolò Renna from Italy completed the podium in 3rd place. Our Starboard Dream Team rider Sebastian Koerdel managed to navigate through the event with very consistent results and became the Vice-World Champion.

Sebastian about his Vice-World Title:

“The event was physically very demanding. Especially with the light wind, the iQFOiL class is a very heart-rate-driven sport. The conditions in the north sea with the waves are very physically demanding. It was another showing of my performance in the top 3. This year is my year of 2nd places. Points wise after the final series I was in second place and I did the medal race and I got the Silver medal. The final racing was pretty cool, we had some quite windy medal races. I had so much fun and I am ready to push more. It is good motivation to climb the last step on the podium the next year.”
