My Story
I am not your typical surf child, I have spend the biggest part of my life growing up in Cities far away from the sea, Göttingen in Germany (my mothers Hometown) and Brussels in Belgium where I went to high school. I studied politics and philosophy in England and only with a university degree in my pocket did I finally fully commit pursue my dream of becoming a full-time professional windsurfer! Travelling the world competing on the PWA world tour consistently achieving top 3 results in slalom as well as starting to compete in the waves has been my life for 8 years. I love to share my story and hopefully inspire as many people as possible to believe and act upon their dreams. Most recently I have taken on a completely new challenge, moved away from professional windsurfing and have become an Olympic athlete with the goal of winning an Olympic medal at the 2024 Olympic Games in France.

PRO TO OLYMPIAN: FOLLOW MY JOURNEY
I am one of those idealists that believe in the power of dreams, that there are greater energies in the Universe than any of us can comprehend and that through an attitude of gratitude and tuning in to nature and your true desires you will be able to attract positive things into your life.
I am extremely grateful to be able to pursue my passion, pushing my limits during competitions and always trying to better myself is what drives me. I love learning and enjoy being able to take in new experiences during my travels. To be able to share more of this life and maybe inspire some of you to follow your dreams I have started producing a VLOG on my Youtube Channel and have enjoyed the process of learning about filming and editing. Make sure to check them out on my channel Lena Erdil and let me know what you think.
