Round the Dam The First Edition is in the Books!

What is Round the Dam?

Round the Dam is our new wingfoil race. It’s a long-distance format designed for both ambitious amateurs and pro riders. The course runs along the North Sea side of the Brouwersdam, covering roughly 35 kilometres of open water.

The race started straight from the beach with a rabbit start, where riders entered the water as soon as the passing vehicle – the rabbit – had gone by.

What went down

Great conditions: sun, wind, and a clear course. The wind became stronger during the day.
Over 60 wingfoilers lined up at the start.
After the first full lap, the fastest 30 riders qualified for a second race
