The rumors are true. As winter has arrived, so has Norwegian phenom Andreas Wiig to Forum’s pro team. Joining Peter Line, Eddie Wall, Pat Moore, Jake Welch, Stevie Bell, John Jackson, Nic Sauvé and Daniel Ek, Andreas is set to give it 110% this season. Whether riding the park, at a slopestyle event or filming in the backcountry, Wiig continually pushes his limits.
"It's an honor to be part of such a talented and progressive team, a team that is setting the standard in snowboarding today," says Wiig. "I already know most of the guys on the team and I'm looking forward to riding with them. It's going to be good times."
"There is no better fit for Forum than Andreas. Forum is a cutting-edge freestyle brand and that is exactly who Andreas is, always taking it to a new level," states Director of Team Marketing Bryan Knox. "We are all extremely happy to be working with a rider of this caliber."
Thinking back to when his snowboarding career began and how he got to where he is today, Andreas is looking forward to focusing more on filming and shooting photos. Although he’ll continue to participate in select contests globally, the emphasis of Wiig's upcoming season seems to be reconnecting with his roots.
