Results in from the Kernow Foil Classic, which took place on the Atlantic fringes of southwest UK.
The Kernow foil Classic in the UK wrapped up on the 27th October after the 2 week holding period delivered a range of conditions which took this wing and prone foil competition all over the Cornish county.
The Prone comp saw international riders competing through a heat ladder at the iconic Daymer Bay point break for sun up to sun down heats, while sudden forecast changes forced the Wing comp to adapt and go mobile from 2 firing breaks in the south where riders charged together in a rider judged Jam format.
