SFT DOWNWIND WORLD TOUR LAUNCHING 2025

CROWNING CHAMPIONS IN SUP DOWNWINDERS!

The SFT Downwind Foil World Tour is set to launch in 2025. With events being planned for some of the most iconic locations for downwinding, this tour promises to deliver breathtaking competitions where riders harness the power of ocean swells and wind to glide vast distances with unmatched speed and grace.

What is Downwind Foiling?

Downwind foiling is a dynamic watersport where riders use a hydrofoil to glide above the water’s surface, propelled by ocean swells and wind. Unlike traditional surfing, downwind foiling allows riders to cover long distances at high speeds, seamlessly connecting waves and maintaining momentum. This discipline requires a unique blend of wave-reading skills, stamina, and balance, making it a true test of endurance and ocean mastery.

Innovative Event Formats

The SFT Downwind Foil World Tour will introduce competitive formats designed to challenge riders and captivate audiences. These formats include:

• Distance Races: Riders compete to cover long distances, navigating swells and wind with efficiency and speed.
• Time Trials: Athletes race against the clock to achieve the fastest times over a set course.
• Team Relays: Collaborative challenges where teams of riders showcase strategy and coordination over extended distances.

These diverse formats will highlight the endurance, strategy, and technical skill required in downwind foiling, keeping the action fresh and exciting.

Iconic Global Locations (TBD)

The 2025 SFT Downwind Foil World Tour is planning to take riders to some of the most spectacular downwind locations on the planet. These destinations will not only offer ideal conditions for competition but also celebrate the natural beauty and spirit of adventure that define downwind foiling.
