Wieger van Wageningen is the only professional Dutch skateboarder.
He was born and raised in Eindhoven. Wieger started skateboarding at the age of 12 at the legendary (but recently removed) Dutch skateboardspot 'Piazza' in the very centre of Eindhoven. He is a proud Brabander ( a citizen of the southern Dutch province, Brabant).
Wieger van Wageningen is nationally considered as the best Dutch skateboarder and is celebrated for his unique style and friendly attitude. His stance is goofy, which means his right foot is on the front of his board.
Some of his sponsors are Nike SB, Quiksilver and 100% skateboardshop Eindhoven. His previous board sponsor was the Firm, until they stopped producing his signature skateboard. Wieger van Wageningen is currently travelling with the Nike team around the world and lives in California as well as Eindhoven. In late January of 2008, Wieger officially joined the Enjoi team.
