THE REIGNING CHAMPIONS

Bowien van der Linden and Olivia Piana are the 2021 GWA Surf-Freestyle and Surf-Slalom reigning champions, respectively. 

Titouan Galea currently holds the top spot for both disciplines for the men.

As the level of wing foiling has risen exponentially over the past year, we’re eagerly awaiting the Lecuate event where these top athletes are bound to deliver an amazing performance. Who’s going to take home the top spot for 2022?
