Celebrating Our 2025 Wakesurf Award Recipients

WSWBC is proud to recognize the outstanding achievements of our wakesurf athletes during the 2025 season. These riders demonstrated competitive excellence, personal growth, and a strong commitment to the sport both on and off the water.

Wake Surf Achievement Award

Dagen Duczek earned the Wake Surf Achievement Award after an exceptional 2025 season. He placed 2nd at Provincials and captured 1st place at Nationals in the Pro Division, marking his second consecutive National Championship. As a member of the BC Team, Dagen also played a key role within the team’s leadership and mentorship core, making a lasting impact beyond competition.

Most Improved Male Wake Surf Award

Noah Goulding received the Most Improved Male Wake Surf Award in recognition of his outstanding progression this season. Noah demonstrates exceptional drive and passion for wakesurfing and is highly coachable, consistently applying feedback with focus and intent. His dedication has led to remarkable improvement, including successfully landing complex tricks. Off the water, Noah is always the first to help and eager to learn — from judging to absorbing advice alongside fellow riders — further fueling his growth as both an athlete and teammate.

Most Improved Female Wake Surf Award

Ainsley Hennessy earned the Most Improved Female Wake Surf Award after two seasons of impressive dedication and growth in the sport. As a committed member of the BC Wakesurf Team, Ainsley makes the most of every training opportunity and is always eager to learn from coaches and teammates. She continues to build both her trick repertoire and confidence on the water. Following a Provincial and National Championship win in Female Amateur 2 Skim in 2024, Ainsley carried that momentum into 2025, earning silver at Provincials. Her commitment and passion for wakesurfing are evident every time she rides.
