From OpenSkiff to WASZP. The progression continues. 🚀
The OpenSkiff World Championship has wrapped up in Calasetta, Sardinia, bringing together more than 160 young sailors from around the world for an incredible week of racing.
WASZP was delighted to be part of the event, giving young sailors the opportunity to experience foiling first-hand and discover what could be the next step in their sailing journey.
A perfect example is Jules Thibau.
After racing successfully in the OpenSkiff class, Jules has now made the move to WASZP. And in Calasetta, we captured the journey in one photo: Jules standing beside his WASZP, pointing to a banner behind him showing his younger self racing an OpenSkiff.
Same sailor. New challenge. Next level. ⚡️
A huge thank you to the Lega Navale del Sulcis, President Salvatore Turco and the entire organising team for the warm hospitality, as well as the OpenSkiff Class for welcoming WASZP into the event.
Special thanks also to the Seaside Sport Academy of Talamone, coach Federico Andreotti and Jules for providing the WASZP and supporting the on-water demo sessions.
The pathway is there.
OpenSkiff ➡️ WASZP ➡️ Foiling.
