Foiling Week 2025

×
Close your eyes. Lake Garda disappears below. The hull breaks away from the water’s surface. You take flight, driven only by the wind and a subtle hum that slices through the air. Every manoeuvre demands precision, instinct, control. Every second, a perfect balance between lightness and speed.
Here’s to Foiling Week!
Across breathtaking classes such as Moth, WASZP, Switch One Design, BirdyFish and ETF26, over 400 athletes will be competing in high-speed races in front of Fraglia Vela Malcesine, with an star-studded line up from the America's Cup and SailGP:
To celebrate Foiling Week 2025, SLAM is providing all competing athletes with the FOIL RASHGUARD LS

However, Foiling Week is about so much more than just racing: it is a testing ground for innovation and sailing culture, with water trials open to the public, clinics for young and seasoned sailors alike, educational moments and environmental workshops. And speaking of testing new ground, this is where our hero products find their natural environment.
In order to cope with the gusts of Lake Garda, the changing conditions and constant splash from foil boats, you need light, flexible and protective clothing. Our Foiling Top 1.5 mm and Foiling Long John 1.5 mm are the perfect choice for those who want to stay at peak performance even in the summer season, with thermal protection and freedom of movement where it's really needed. Designed for those who glide, fly and tack at extreme speeds.
During Foiling Week, you will see both worn by sailors who really have pushed foiling to its limits: our ambassadors, testers and star athletes will be on the racecourse, trying them out and showcasing their effectiveness.
Foiling Week is also about sustainability, a vision of the future and open dialogue between worlds. From 30th June to 1st July, the Week will be followed by the first edition of the Foiling Sport Congress, a moment to discuss and build the future of foiling among federations, classes and athletes. A project in which we firmly believe, one that tells the story of a sport that is changing and growing. Because SLAM has always invested in technique, innovation and responsibility.
Throughout the week, we look forward to seeing you in the Foiling Week village, which will be open to the public and brimming with trials, exhibitions and the lakefront aperitif with which the Fraglia Vela Malcesine celebrates this 12th edition.
Those who live for speed on water, who believe in the potential of foiling, who want to be an active part of this evolution:
See you in Malcesine!
