Norway is renowned for producing world-class riders on the World Tour and Lisa Wiik is one of their brightest stars. Top Scandinavian Halfpipe riders like Stine Brun Kjeldaas and Kjersti Oestgaard Buaas have greatly influenced Lisa who is also a member of the Norwegian National Team and is a 2002 and 2010 Olympian.  She has a strong gymnastics history that is certainly evident when you see her boosting massive Mctwists with style and grace.

Hailing from Norway’s third largest city, Trondheim, Lisa began riding in 1996 when she borrowed her brother’s snowboard during his lunch breaks.  She progressed quickly and was one of the first riders competing when the World Snowboard Tour tour kicked off.  In 2005 she began riding for what is arguably one of the strongest female teams out there – Roxy.  With Roxy as her sponsor her progression and profile skyrocketed and she was consistently posting good results and making her way to the top.

Her focus and determination are sure ingredients to continuous placement in the Top 5 and we can definitely expect Lisa Wiik, with her wicked style and fun attitude to be a worthy contestant in becoming a World Tour Champion in the future.
