World Champion Windsurfer
About me
Speed World Record Holder
7 x World Titles
Jenna
Named after Jenna De Rosnay, the legendary windsurfer of the 1980s.
Jenna De Rosnay broke the speed world record seven times. Remarkably, she set many of her records at what has now become one of my home spots, Portland Harbour, during Weymouth Speed Week, an event I still compete in every year.
I’ve since broken that same speed world record six times myself, and today hold the Women’s Portland Harbour record.
Taught by my parents, both passionate windsurfers.
I started windsurfing at 12, taught by my parents, both passionate windsurfers. My mum was racing while pregnant with me, and I grew up learning alongside my brother and sister, racing next to my dad as he took us all over the country to compete.
Windsurfing quickly became my whole world.
Fastest on the race course.
Unlike typical speed sailors who train on flat, controlled waters, I learned to windsurf on the rough seas of the English Channel.
From the very start, I threw myself into racing, and the benefits of training in such demanding conditions quickly became clear. Competing in a UK fleet dominated by men pushed my level higher and higher.
Now, I’m the first woman ever to become UK National Champion, beating all the men.
From National Championships to World Titles.
At 28, I travel the world training and competing on the international race circuit. Last year, I secured my fourth consecutive IFCA Slalom Racing World Title.
After showcasing standout speed on the slalom circuit, I fully embraced the world of speed sailing.
Breaking Barriers in Speed Sailing.
With barely six months of speed sailing experience, I made a last-minute, crowd-funded trip to Namibia’s custom-built speed canal in Lüderitz, armed with untested, borrowed gear.
There, I became the only woman ever to break 50 knots peak speed, sailing nine runs over the previous world record and setting a new record six times. I reached 48.03 knots over 500 metres.
Looking Ahead & Chasing New Records.
This year, I’ll return to Lüderitz with one clear goal: to push the official women’s speed world record beyond the legendary 50-knot mark over 500 meters.
Alongside my windsurfing career, I’m also studying part-time with the Open University, working toward a joint honours BSc in Computing & IT with Mathematics, balancing life on the water with lifelong learning.

Catching a bit of unexpected air on the @weymouthspeedweek speed strip... but that`s all part of the fun 😝
Windy conditions with 5.2 and 89🤘

Penultimate day of the European Championships:
2 more good races today ✅✅
For a moment it looked like the wind was up and the 6.7 was going to get some laps, but the wind dropped back down and the trusty 7.7 came back out .
Final day tomorrow. With 12/14 wins under my belt, the pressure is off.

8.5 Warp_Fin 2026
129 Falcon D/LAB
42cm F-Hot RWS1

European Championships Day3
A nice relaxing start to the day with dog walks on the beach, with racing kicking off later in the afternoon.
A wrong kit choice in the first race left me swimming at the first mark with no wind on my 6.7 - 5th place.🤿
Then choosing not to make that same mistake again, sailed the following 2 races mega overpowered on 7.7 when the wind picked back up - 2 bullets but my body took a beating 😅
Very early start tomorrow morning- 7am to try and catch the only breeze of the day

Euros Day2
5 races today, clean sweep 😊
again on this mega fast combo :
37cm F-Hot Fins RWS2
118 D/LAB Falcon
7.7 Warp_Fin
The wind is up and down in typical Denmark fashion, but this setup is handing the full range perfectly 👌

Day1 on the water IFCA Euros🚁
Nice start: 1,1,1,4 with the 7.7/118/37 combo 🚀🚀🚀
Tricky choppy conditions with lots of seaweed in the water- sometimes you get unlucky, hitting big patches and have to stop, the rest of the time you just have keep sailing with the extra drag, but that’s the same for everyone 🍌 but the SlalomX saussage practice is coming in handy 😅
Racing continues all week @waterzdk @ifca_class
