Valeska Schneider - the winner among women

Valeska Schneider was one of the strongest all-rounders among the other eight participants. She enjoys surfing both in the sea and on an artificial wave, which she is now concentrating on.

The girl received her master's degree in health, having managed to become four times champion on the shortboard among universities in Germany and twice - on the longboard. Now she is training hard to take the top spot in citywave ® pro World Tour 2020 with the summer finale in Japan.
