What an incredible week!!
The 2026 PWA Slalom X season has come to an end, and we’d like to congratulate the AV Boards team for an outstanding performance.
Lohan Jules finished the event in an impressive 10th place overall, confirming his place among the fastest riders in the world. His 2nd and 3rd place « best » finishes in individual eliminations demonstrated both his speed and consistency, proving he has what it takes to fight at the very front.
A special mention also goes to Tristan Algret. Returning to competition with limited physical preparation, he showed that experience, determination, and talent can still make the difference. Reaching an elimination final after his comeback is a strong achievement and an encouraging sign for what’s ahead.
Both riders used the all-new 2026 Modena. The results confirmed that the new shapes are a significant step forward compared to the previous generation. At the same time, racing at the highest level gives us invaluable feedback, helping us understand where we can improve even further. Our mission is to keep refining every detail to deliver the fastest, easiest, and most enjoyable boards possible.
Because in the end, it’s all about having fun on the water.
We are incredibly proud of both riders and grateful for the commitment they have shown throughout the event. These performances motivate the entire AV Boards team as we continue to develop the fastest and most competitive equipment possible.
Congratulations, Lohan and Tristan. The journey continues.
