K-Challenge Akademy Continues Its ETF26 Season at Foiling Week Malcesine
Fresh from the ETF26 European Championship in Campione del Garda, the young sailors of the K-Challenge Akademy are back in action for another major event on the circuit: Foiling Week, taking place in Malcesine, Italy, from 1–4 July.
Established in 2014, Foiling Week has become the world’s leading event dedicated to foiling sailing. For one week, the world’s top foiling classes gather on Lake Garda to combine high-level racing, innovation and knowledge sharing around the latest developments in the sport. For the ETF26 fleet, this event is one of the highlights of the European season.
Two K-Challenge teams will represent the Akademy at the third event of the 2026 ETF26 circuit.

Building on the lessons learned during the opening regattas of the season, this latest challenge against some of the world’s best teams will provide the Akademy’s young sailors and female athletes with another valuable opportunity to develop their skills on these demanding foiling boats in the renowned sailing conditions of Lake Garda.
Over four days of racing, both crews will aim to build on the progress they have made since the start of the season while gaining further experience against a highly competitive international fleet.
