Racing starts again this weekend Feb 18-19, 2025.
Many of us are excited to watch racing in Australia in particular due to the new T-Foils that will give the boats better control and higher speeds over the old L shaped foils.
Let's see what speeds they hit. In San Fransico they tested the new T-Foils, and they hit for the first time 100+ kph (101.98 or basically 102 kph / 55 knots / 63 mph) on Nov 15th, 2024, in San Fransico Bay. Team New Zealand just hit 97.2 / 52 knots / 60 mph on Jan 13 in Waitematā Harbour in Auckland, just before the upcoming racing. It will be curious to see who hits 100 kph / 54 knots / 62 mph during actual racing.
I am happy to say Team USA is sitting in 3rd place in the current standing before this weekend's racing. They are looking good, and I have high hopes they can continue their good results? We shall see...
102 kph, watch the video
