Where Future
Champions Take Flight
USFoil exists to build America’s foiling future — creating a connected national pathway that supports sailors, clubs, and programs from their first flight through international success.
We are the central hub for foiling development in the United States, working hand in hand with yacht clubs, sailing centers, and schools to make foiling accessible and achievable for sailors of all ages. Our mission is to ensure that young sailors, no matter their starting point, can experience the thrill of flight and pursue their potential in this new era of performance sailing.
“USFoil is the missing link we’ve been waiting for in North America. For years there’s been huge enthusiasm for dinghy foiling, but access and structure held us back. USFoil connects the dots giving sailors, coaches, and clubs a clear pathway to get involved, improve, and compete.”

Our Platforms
WASZP Foiling Dinghy
The WASZP is the modern fleet racing foiler and the world’s established benchmark for one-design foiling. With a global racing circuit, the WASZP delivers true high-performance dinghy foiling in a format that emphasizes skill, athleticism, and development over equipment advantage.
Accessible, fair, consistent, and affordable, it provides a clear pathway for sailors at every stage — from their first flights to international championship competition.
Sailors from everyday clubs and available sailing venues are now able to take sailors from their first foiling experience at age 10 to international competition — all in the same boat. Its simplicity, durability, and affordability make it the natural successor to traditional single-handed dinghies like the ILCA (Laser).
Just as the Laser once defined performance sailing for generations, the WASZP now represents the next chapter — a platform that rewards skill over equipment and opens the door to the future of the sport.
Wing Foiling
Wing foiling represents the next frontier in accessible, high-performance sailing. Using lightweight inflatable wings and compact foil boards, wing foiling offers an easy, safe entry point into the world of foiling.
Modern wing foil equipment provides incredible stability, enabling sailors of all ages — from youth learning balance and control to experienced racers training agility, board feel, and foil responsiveness.
For clubs, schools, and community programs, wing foiling lowers the barrier to entry — quick to set up, highly portable, and operable in a wide range of venues and conditions.
As part of the USFoil pathway, wing foiling complements the WASZP by broadening participation while also serving as an additional platform for cross-training, fitness, and fun.
