Speed associated with fly, no-flying, rest

Hello, how is analized the speeds of the track? What are the limits used to label one part of the track “flying” or “no-flying” or “rest”? Car we set up personnal speed limits?

Hi,

Speed thresholds for flying, non-flying, and resting are calculated based on the sport and discipline you’ve selected. Each sport has its own physical characteristics — what counts as “flying” on a windfoil is different from wingfoil or pump foil — so the thresholds are tuned accordingly. Resting is also sport-specific: some disciplines naturally include rest periods (e.g. between waves), while others like wingfoiling rarely have true rest within a session.

Personal speed limits aren’t supported by design. The point of the system is comparability — the same rules apply to everyone, across sessions and across disciplines. That’s what makes cross-sport comparisons meaningful: you can look at consecutive flight time on pump foil versus wingfoil and immediately understand the relative effort, because the definition of “flying” is consistent.

Well understood. Can I have the thresholds retained for kitefoil? Thanks for your fast reply !

Best regards

Hello,

You can see the threshold on the speed graph below the map.
It is the red dotted line.

Ok, thank you for the quick response. Good sailing!:grinning_face:
