Barcolana Foil Academy

Everything is ready for the arrival of FIV’s ‘Next Generation Foil Academy powered by Luna Rossa’, which will bring energy sailing into the Barcolana. The regattas will take place in the morning’s thermal wind, approximately between 7 a.m. and 10 a.m., on Thursday, 10 and Friday, 11 October, and possibly on Saturday if needed. The regattas, which aim to promote fast and emerging sailing classes, will be dedicated to the Wazsp, IQ Foil and Wingfoil classes. Coordinating the activities at the Barcolana will be Olympian Alessandra Sensini, FIV’s Technical Manager for Youth. The awards ceremony is scheduled for Saturday at 3:30 p.m. at the Revoltella Museum. So as to promote this type of sailing to the general public, the last race will be a Stadium Race held in the Bacino San Giusto, in front of Piazza Unità.
