World Sailing opens IWSA Formula Wing Registered Series Production Registration Scheme
by IWSA WingFoil Racing 13 Feb 09:00 PST
The Series Production Formula Wing Equipment Registration Scheme is operated by World Sailing and acts as the process by which manufacturers can register series production equipment to be eligible for racing at IWSA Formula Wing events.
World Sailing operates a system for approval and registration of equipment, making it eligible for use at IWSA Formula Wing Events.
The scheme requires manufacturers to produce identical equipment items, using the same building specification, made in a production run of not less than a minimum number of identical units.
Approved series production equipment is listed in the World Sailing Approved Lists.
To be eligible for use at IWSA Formula Wing events, equipment must be registered with World Sailing and included on the relevant IWSA Production Equipment list, not less than 30 days prior to the start of the event.
This Phase 1 of the Equipment Registration Scheme is a self-declaration by the brands/manufacturers to grandfather all existing equipment. Registration of equipment in Phase 1 is free of charge.
It is intended to implement Phase 2 on 1 May 2025 (latest) for any equipment that is newly produced. Additional requirements for documentation and technical data will be required in Phase 2.
Brands/Manufacturers are strongly encouraged to register current and past models to make them eligible for racing as soon as possible.
Phase 1 registrations will be used for equipment eligibility for the 2025 Formula Wing European Championships in Urla (TUR) from 20-24 May 2025. Registrations must be completed 30 days before.
