The first World Championship for the Junior – under 23 – division of the International Raceboard Class will take place in Rostock-Warnemuende, Germany, from 6th to 11th July.
This follows the decision of the membership at the 2018 Annual General Meeting of the class to introduce a new age division of “Junior”. Competitors shall be 22 years of age, or less, throughout the competition year; and shall be limited to using a sail with a maximum area of 8.500 sq.m. [more].
It is hoped that this division will support the development of the class into senior racing on “longboards”.
NOTE – under 23 male competitors still have the option to race on sail of 9.500 sq.m within the senior age groups, but cannot compete for the Junior title.
