World Snowboard Federation Holds General Assembly

A new chapter begins for the global snowboard community

The World Snowboard Federation (WSF) successfully held its General Assembly, bringing together members from across the global snowboard community to take important governance decisions and to set the direction for the federation’s future work.

A central outcome of the Assembly was the election of a new President, Executive Committee, and Board Members, marking a significant moment of leadership renewal for the organization. Reto Lamm (Switzerland) was elected as the new President of the World Snowboard Federation. The outgoing Board had chosen not to stand for another term, enabling a smooth transition.

The newly elected Executive Committee consists of:

• Anna Negri – Vice President Finance
• Meinhard Trojer – Vice President Grassroots
• Josef “Seppi” Harml – Vice President Development
• Sandy Macdonald – Vice President Competitive

In addition, the following Board Members were elected:

• Annukka Himmi Vassoney
• Stefan Karlsson
• Ashley Deibold
• Roberto Montanés
• Shigeru Ishihara

Together, the new leadership team represents a broad international spectrum and brings extensive experience across grassroots development, competitive snowboarding, athlete pathways, and federation governance.

The General Assembly also provided an opportunity to express sincere gratitude to the outgoing Board and, in particular, to WSF President Dominic Kuhn. The World Snowboard Federation thanks Dominic for his dedication, leadership, and commitment during his tenure, including his efforts in guiding the organization through challenging periods while continuing to support and connect the global snowboard community.

With the election concluded, the WSF looks ahead with renewed energy and confidence, committed to strengthening cooperation among its members and further developing snowboarding worldwide in line with the federation’s core values.
