Today we crowned all of our GWA Wingfoil World Cup New Zealand winners!
It was a stormy and windy morning on the penultimate day of competition in Tauranga, New Zealand. Despite the conditions, we completed 4 eliminations for the men and 11 for the women, with Bastien Escofet and Nia Suardiaz holding the lead.
The competition site was moved again to Pilot Bay, where we completed the full Surf-Freestyle elimination for both men and women.
