However if WING Foilers opt out of using an escort boat, the athlete will be required to have a personal EPIRB device and VHF hand held with GPS mapping. In addition, all FOIL athletes are required to be tethered to their boards with a leash. The race will update any additional safety requirements for FOIL by June 15th.
