Title: Wingfoil Racing in New England!!
Post by: cnski on May 23, 2022, 03:40:23 PM

We are launching our weekly wing foil racing series with a foil fest weekend hosted by Cabrinha.  Please go to the website above and to the racing (weekly) page to sign up for the racing.  The racing is meant to be fun and inclusive and will give us all a chance to learn and improve.  The price for the whole series - 8 races plus the practice session - is $60 and is free for juniors.  The Cabrinha demo weekend is for all and you can try their latest gear.  They will also have coaches available so if you have friends or family that want to learn they can attend and have lessons.  No cost for the demo weekend.  Please feel free to pass along to others.  If all goes well we will also host an end of season championship regatta.  Happy winging!

Cool to see more races popping up. Even better that it is a series. Well done.

Now if only the folks here in Charleston could rally more than once a year (F2B).

Sounds like a blast.  Im far enough that I can't make it more than once or twice, but I'm going to try to join this.

Tuesday nights it is. That's the only night they could give us so we'll take it. I guess we're obliged to get tacos and beer afterward. The word is out with alot of interest from the local pro sailing community. Bristol Yacht Club put on a SailGP "Foiling First" event last summer and this will expand on their commitment to promote foil racing . Should be a great summer!! Please come join.

I grew up across the way in pawtuxet cove, but live in Maine now, that’d be so fun to do sometime!
