Foiling: The art of flying over water!

⚡️ With the right light-wind setup, you’ll be up and gliding from just 7 knots. Big front wing for early lift, smaller gear for control in stronger winds—every choice counts.

Ready to level up your ride?

Wave discipline – pure fun, but with a competitive twist! 🌊🔥 Most riders stick to their usual wave gear, but in a contest, you don’t get to pick perfect conditions—you’ve got to make it work, whether it’s onshore, gusty, or just straight-up brutal.

⚡ Minimum setup: Medium wave board + 1-2 sails.
⚡ Recommended setup: Medium/high-wind wave board + a bigger light-wind board & powerful onshore sail for those heavy shorebreaks.

Wave gear isn’t just for waves—at the top end of Fin Slalom, it can be a solid alternative! 🚀

#californiawindsurfcup #discipline #wave #season25 #volkswagen_journey #partnerdersurfer #volkswagennutzfahrzeuge #koenigpilsener #lvmversicherung #autostadt

Fin Slalom – Speed & Control ⚡️💨

According to IFCA rules, Fin Slalom starts at 11 knots, but in practice, it’s more like 13 knots since foiling takes over at lower wind speeds. Riders typically go for a light wind setup with 7.8–9.0 sqm sails and medium- or light-wind slalom boards. As the wind picks up, smaller sails (7 sqm or less) and high-wind boards come into play.

Good news: You don’t need the latest high-tech gear! Even older equipment can get you into the finals if it’s well-tuned and you’re in shape. 💪

From childhood sessions on Danish fjords to competing in the California Windsurf Cup – it’s been an incredible journey. Windsurfing is all about passion, persistence, and pushing through every challenge. Tough days teach the best lessons, and no condition can stop you when you’re prepared. 🌊💨

„I’m Mika Henning, one of the youngest participants in this year’s California Windsurf Cup. I turned 13 in mid-July. I’m from the Lower Rhine region in North Rhine-Westphalia, Germany. When I’m not competing in the cups, you can usually find me at my home spots around Brouwersdam in the Netherlands on weekends.“

„When something doesn’t go the way I want it to, it motivates me to improve even more. It serves as a reminder that nothing can be achieved without practice.“
