Unless you've been living under a rock, you know that Jett Lambert has been on the forefront of surf progression for the last few years. Landing new tricks, getting tricks consistent that were previously inconceivable and standing atop more podiums than any other rider, Jett has been pushing surfing like no other. No wonder he took the P5 Rider of the Year award for the second year in a row! Congrats, Jett! Check in with him below about how his 2026 is coming together!

A legend in every sense of the word, Caro Villeneuve has logged more hours on a board and in the boat than most. Originally from Canada, she has been with Phase 5 for years and she truly embodies what Phase 5 is all about! She may have taken a step back from competition over the last few years but she is still very involved with the sport. She runs a wakesurfing school – H20 School LTD – on Lake Koocanusa BC Canada every season and gives back as much to the wakesurf community as she can! Congrats again, Caro! You’re a legend!

Victoria Moroski signed on with Phase 5 last year and quickly showed us that she was here to stay! Finding herself on multiple podiums throughout the course of the 2025 season, Victoria proved that she was a great addition to the team with ease! That being said, it made it easy to name her the P5 Rookie of the Year at the 4th Annual Phase 5 Regatta. Congrats, Victoria! We’re looking forward to your 2026 season!

Every year at the Phase 5 Regatta, we hold a special Athlete’s Awards Dinner where we can highlight the achievements of the team over the last season. With such a stacked team, there is no shortage of “congratulations” to go around! Outside of the competition highlights and introducing newly added team members are the Phase 5 Awards. These special five awards – Inspirational, Legend, Rookie of the Year, International ROTY, and ROTY – are given to the riders who truly embody the Phase 5 spirit and show it day in and day out, on and off the water.

Once a year, we invite as many members of the Phase 5 team that we can to attend the annual Phase 5 Regatta in Sebring, FL. This is a chance for riders from all over the country, and the world, to get together to bond, shred, and have fun together. Most of these riders don’t see each other outside of the events so we think it’s an awesome opportunity for them to get to know each other on a more personal level. Between the riding and the games, we also took time to have our annual “Awards Dinner” where we honor the teams accomplishments. We will post more from that evening over the coming weeks to give the riders some extra love but in the meantime, check out the images from the event and keep your eyes peeled for a full recap video coming soon!

Will he do it again in 2026? We shall see!

The team descended into Dubai this past weekend for the 2025 Wakesurf Championships – Dubai Creek Edition! Dubai definitely does this event the right way!

The 2025 USA Flow Tour Championships just went down at Riversport OKC and although we don’t make flow rider boards, unless Sean Silveira asks really nicely, we were stoked to help out and sponsor the tour because we want people to be stoked about riding boards on water, no matter how they do it! The sport of flow riding has seen a major increase in progression over the last few years and having Sean Silveira on the team, who got his start in flow riding, it just made sense to help out the Flow Tour crew!

With six stops over the season at locations all over the USA, we’re happy to be a part of anything that helps get people on the water, whether it’s behind the boat or not! If you didn’t know, our very own Sean Silveira started his career on the Flow Rider so it definitely has its place for cross-training with surfing.

The UAE has become a hot spot for the sport of wakesurfing and we’re here for it! With tons of access to the water and plenty of different clubs to go choose from, it’s rather easy to get on the water and surf. As opposed to the states where the norm is to have your own boat, or a buddy with a boat, in Abu Dhabi and Dubai, they have “clubs” where you can call in to make a reservation to ride, with or without coaching. It takes the stress out of taking care of your own boat so all you have to do is show up and shred! Sounds pretty good, right?!

The Centurion World Series of Wakesurfing kicked off this past weekend at Pleasant Harbor Marina in Arizona. The Phase 5 team showed up in full force and took home plenty of hardware.

Solid start for the season for those two! Rob McClelland showed he’s biting right at Jett’s heels with a great performance to capture 2nd place. Will he sneak up on Jett and take first this season? We’ll just have to wait and see!

Good vibes and great times were had by all at the 3rd Annual Phase 5 Regatta this year! The weather might not have been the best with the wind whipping both days but that didn’t slow us down one bit!

The Regatta might have a strong emphasis on getting water time in but having so many riders together from so many different places gives us the opportunity to highlight some of their accomplishments from the past season with everyone there to enjoy! So with that in mind, we put on the Regatta Awards Dinner to show our appreciation for the team that lives and breathes Phase 5!

The idea for the Phase 5 Regatta started off innocently enough. Plan a lake weekend with the team riders and their families to get together, surf, hang out, and have a good time! Pretty simple, right? In theory, yes…but when the call went out, we got a lot more RSVP’s than expected, but hey, the more the merrier, right?! We were stoked with all the riders that came out and we love to see how everyone interacts with one another outside of the competition scene.

Ryder Duczek’s mother sent us a message recently so we decided to take a stroll down memory lane! Ryder, along with his brother Dagan, were the first Canadians we brought onto team Phase 5, and for good reason. They rip!

In 2024, it seemed like no matter where you turned, Whitley Stewart was standing on the top spot of a podium. One of the most technical riders out there, Whitley traveled around all season long shredding and sharing the stoke with tons of different riders. Not only that, she had a pro model release at the end of the season (the Stewart Pro) which really cemented her top status. We caught up with Whitley to chat about the season, her new board, and what the future holds for her.
