THE CLASSIC 2025 PLAN
For 2025 the kernow foil classic is developing its format to focus on the experience and embrace more of what the cornish coast has to offer. Foiling brings people together and the event puts that centre stage. utilising a variety of locations for the first time the competition is able to condense into a 5 day format which will again include a heated and professionally judged wing and prone surf foiling competition for amateur and elite riders alongside a new freeride zone and demo village which is open to all to join.
Selecting the location based on the forecast, a pop up event will be set for a suitable tide window. From there, the competition will run and alongside it a daily demo village with equipment from brand sponsors will be available to try for free riding next door to the comp zone.
After the riding is over each night a local social will bring people together for food, drinks and good vibes Surrounded by a host of daring, like-minded individuals who all share the same thirst for adventure and passion for foiling.
Making it easy for riders to stay well rested and right at the heart of the action, we have partnered with a holiday park to bring an affordable and local accommodation package to ensure the vibe at the 2025 is all about sessioning together.
