The World Snowboard Federation welcomes four new member nations which have been approved by the WSF Board of Directors 2012 / 13.
The brand new launched China SNOWboard Association CSbA (中国单板协会) which is patroned by the industry veteran Wang Lei, is now part of the WSF family.
“The support of talented young riders from China to enter a global stage is a top priority. Holding a World Rookie Tour event and other TTR sanctioned events for the local community in China in the near future gives us a promising kickstart”
comments Wang Lei, President of CSbA, on the latest efforts in pushing Chinas presence in an evergrowing global Snowboarding Circuit.
WSF proudly announces its first member on the African continent: Snowsports South Africa.
Buidling up a national snowboard Association in Bulgaria, Freestyle Sport Ltd will strengthen the snowboard development in Eastern Europe.
With its entrance in WSF, the Lithuanian National Ski Association is making the Baltic group in the WSF membership complete.
The new member nations are holding the status of “affiliated” members. The official voting for membership will take place during the GA 2013 in Prague, CZE. With 41 members on five continents, WSF is steadily working on developing snowboarding in all parts of the globe.
