Scoop!! Windfoilen Nederland organizes together with JumpTeam Scheveningen and with the Dutch importer of Starboard and Freewing the world’s very first X-15 Class single class wing foiling competition. The X-15 Class wing foil competitions are held at sea in Scheveningen.
For only € 85,- you can race for a whole weekend on the brand new X-15 Class wingfoil equipment made available by Starboard & Freewing. In addition to the competitions, we also organize competition clinics.
X-15 Class wingfoil races and clinics
Most of the weekend is dedicated to racing. All participants sail on the X-15 class equipment provided. Depending on the wind conditions we plan to sail various types of courses, Course racing, Slalom and long distance racing.
We start the weekend with an explanation of the X-15 one design class and the material. In addition, a professional coach (IQfoil) provides a clinic on match tactical topics, such as starting tactics, rounds of the buoys and many other aspects associated with match foiling. The number of participants of the X-15 Class races is limited to 45 participants!
Requirements for participation in the X-15 Class wingfoil competitions
In order for the races to run safely, we expect all participants to be able to wingfoil sufficiently well. And it is important that you have experience to be able to wingfoil at sea, with waves and currents. In addition, wearing an impact vest and helmet during the competitions are mandatory. You participate at your own risk.

X-15 Class wingfoil one design class
Recently, Starboard and Freewing introduced the X-15 wingfoil unit class. Because everyone wingfoiled on the same equipment, there is a much fair fight on the water and the costs for the world-level race become manageable.
The X-15 Class one design set consists of:
- Starboard Full carbon racing board of 85 liters
- Carbon foil with 2 front wings of 820 and 560 cm2
- Freewing Air Pro V2
- Foilbag & travel board bag
