WASZP
The Waszp is an Australian, single-handed, hydrofoiling sailboat designed by Andrew McDougall as a one-design racer for youth and adults, and first built in 2016.
ETF26
Conceived by Jean-Pierre Dick, and designed by Guillaume Verdier, the ETF26 was born to reach new frontiers of speed and performance. It is perfect for high-speed races and has a proven track record in being able to adapt to different weather conditions: from 8 to 20 knots and 2.5 times windspeed.
BIRDYFISH
The concept was born from an observation, how to learn to foil when few foil boats are accessible to neophytes of flight. This foiling dinghy had to be stable, safe while keeping the sensations of flight, frank acceleration and high speed.
SWITCH ONE DESIGN
Any sailor will have the chance to enjoy the thrill of foiling on a full carbon composite, state of the art dinghy. Switch will give sailors the thrill of racing in a one design high performance foiling class.
BOARDS
PUMP FOIL
The pump foil is a human-powered hydrofoil board that flies above the water without wind, waves or engine. Riders generate lift through leg-powered pumping, showcasing extreme balance, fitness and technique. It’s the purest form of foiling — silent, athletic, and deeply addictive.
EFOIL
The eFoil is a battery-powered electric hydrofoil board that allows riders to fly above the water with zero emissions and no external power source. Controlled via a handheld throttle, eFoils combine cutting-edge tech with the magic of flight — fast, smooth and thrilling to ride.
DOWNWIND RACE
One Run. Full Speed.
After its successful debut in 2024, the Downwind Race returns to the Foiling Week programme. Set against the stunning backdrop of Lake Garda, this race will be held once during the event and is open exclusively to foiling boards — no motors allowed. Expect a fast, flowing ride driven by skill and gravity.
