Joel Renberg: Swedish Watercross Champ

(All pix by Seize Media unless otherwise noted.)

Watercross isn’t just a sweet sport for U.S. champs like Dale Lindbeck…it’s also an export that’s grown huge across the pond.

Check out the sweet sled and results of Team Arctic’s Swedish watercross champion Joel Renberg.

A watercrosser for the past four years, Renberg has amassed a hefty list of achievements, including:

*12 Wins, 8 Silver, 10 Bronze and a lot of 4^th place finishes

*Swedish cup GOLD  2016

*2 European championships bronze medals

*Swedish championship bronze

Hailing from the village Obbola, Renberg made the switch to Arctic Cat this year (although he’s run a Cat engine in some of his older sleds). Seems to have paid off with his Swedish championship!

Here’s the scoop on his sled:
