The windsurfer on his way to the Olympics, one wave (and one BalanceShot) after another
from Zinzino
Water sports are not at the top of the list in Nordic countries like Denmark. For Sebastian Kornum, however, windsurfing is the wind in his sails. Windsurfing is created when you combine surfing, sailing, waterskiing, snowboarding and a breathtaking landscape.
Sebastian feels at home on the water and has now set his sights on the Olympics. There he wants to make a name for himself with a new version of the sport: Wingfoiling. Only flying is better.
What prizes and titles have you already won?
As a child, my dream was to become the best Danish windsurfer. I achieved this goal at 17, so I had to set myself a new one and took part in the PWA World Windsurfing Tour at 18. I always wanted to be at the top and was always in the top 10 in wingfoiling. In 2018, I finished 9th in the men's classification at the World Tour. Now I'm preparing for the 2024 Olympics.
Have you ever faced any difficulties?
I'm rather small and light for a windsurfer, compared to the ideal height for this discipline. The biggest challenges are gaining weight and staying injury-free despite intensive training. I learned how important nutrition is to keep my body strong. That was the beginning of my relationship with Zinzino.
Were you surprised by your original ratio of omega-6 to omega-3? Has anything changed since then?
I never really paid attention to my omega-3 levels. So my original ratio was a real shock. I thought I was living a healthy life, but I realized I needed support. Within a few months my ratio was at 3:1. I now have more energy and my body responds better to exercise.
How did you find out about Zinzino?
My father told me about it. He knows how important it is to take care of your health - especially at elite level. So he recommended I give it a try.
Which Zinzino products are you currently using?
I use BalanceOil+ and Xtend+. Now I have energy throughout the day and haven't been sick for over a year.
What has changed in your performance since you started using Zinzino?
The biggest difference I've noticed is my ability to recover better after intense, daily training. As a competitive athlete, this is extremely important. I feel like I recover faster now that my omega-6 to omega-3 ratio is in balance. I can feel it in my body and I can see it in my results.
Why should people consider BalanceOil?
In my opinion, it is too difficult to achieve the perfect balance with food alone and without the right supplements. BalanceOil+ brings the goal of a healthy, balanced body within reach.
Are these products only for athletes?
Everyone can and should benefit from Zinzino's supplements.
