We sat down with some of the GWA champions for an insider s look at what tricks were thrown down, the best pre-competition snacks and where wingfoiling is heading.
First up,
Favorite Trick of the competition?
Air 360 which I learned just the day before the competition.
How did you prepare for the competition?
We - Balz, Laura, Michi, Andi - drove to Tarifa by van before Christmas to get to know the spot by wing foiling. Tarifa and its surroundings is such a nice place to explore by van. Every session on the water together was so nice and I got inspired by all the happy wingers around me. First, we foiled with almost only the locals then more and more riders arrived in Balneario/Playa Chica. It was especially motivational to ride with the women.

Balneario beach in Tarifa is the chosen location for this final Wingfoil World Tour event of 2020, with 19 men and 4 women from 9 different countries ready to battle it out on the water.
What better place to end the 2020 season than in Tarifa, the wind capital of Europe. Balneario beach is an optimal spot to host this event, with the conditions looking promising for the next four days. Many precautions have been taken to ensure a safe event for all of the athletes and crew, with PCR tests done by all participants before entering in the event bubble.
