The Tip Top GWA Wingfoil World Cup presented by Armstrong Foils will run as part of the Waterbourne Beach Festival that also hosts lots of other fun activities and competitions for visitors to see or get involved with.

Featuring both the Surf-Slalom and Surf-Freestyle disciplines, this first world cup event of the season will be held at Mount Maunganui Main Beach over 6 days of an 8 day window, 4-11th March.

Over this event period in early March you can expect to see wind strengths of 10-18 knots each day in the afternoons with the sea breezes further building up to 15-25 knots.

The primary location will be at Mt Maunganui Main beach which is east facing. This is a wavey location which often sees nice rolling waves. If conditions are not suitable, or winds are from an unfavourable direction, the competition could be switched to the harbour side which is a flat water location.
