The Switch One Design is a next-generation, full-carbon foiling dinghy that makes high-speed sailing straightforward and repeatable - without the setup complexity of development classes.
With three matched rigs - 6.5 m², 7.5 m², 8.5 m² sailors can choose the right power for weight, experience, and venue.
The boat flies from ~6 knots and has recorded 30+ knots downwind, delivering genuine foiling performance with a forgiving learning curve.
The class is growing quickly, with appearances at major foiling events and a calendar designed to emphasise high-quality, one-design racing.
Why Switch?
-
One-design fairness: identical platform and controlled parts for tight racing.
-
Accessible foiling: quick lift-off, stable ride, less tinkering, more time sailing.
-
Proven partners & momentum: active class and industry backing; structured rig pathway for juniors, women, and men.
