We are now only 3 weeks away from welcoming 180 WASZP Sailors to one of the most amazing venues in the world of sailing. The home of Foiling in Scandinavia Sandefjord Seilforening will host the 2024 Rockwool International WASZP Games.

Run exclusively from an island in the middle of the Fjord with easy access to the race course, this is an event that will be one of the most spectacular ever presented. We simply can't wait. Stay tuned for more information on how to follow the 2024 event, with bigger and better coverage than ever before, fitting of an event with a record number of competitors.

ROCKWOOL Denmark SailGP Team's Katja Salskov-Iversen is one of the female athletes blazing a trail on the F50 as part of the groundbreaking SailGP Women's Pathway Programme.

Having formed the Danish Waszp Clinic in collaboration with ROCKWOOL and the Royal Danish Yacht Club last year, Salskov-Iversen has been coaching and mentoring the next generation of female foilers - and is now focused on the ROCKWOOL Waszp Games 2024 in Norway this August, a Danish team initiative which will see a record number of female racers compete in Sandefjord.
