- Fiona Wylde (USA) shoots to the top of the women’s leaderboard
- Alessandro Tomasi and Mathis Ghio winning their sides of men’s qualifying
With winds blowing around 12 to 20 knots across Lake Silvaplana, Fiona Wylde the 26-year-old from the USA took three wins, four seconds and a fourth.
The American had been making good progress with wingfoiling up until early 2022 when a big crash resulted in a big shoulder injury and subsequent surgery from which it took 18 months to recover.
Meanwhile there are two clear leaders on either side of the men’s qualifying draw.
Current event leader Alessandro Tomasi in yellow fleet, winning seven of the eight heats.
And reigning World Champion Mathis Ghio in second after the two long distance races of Tuesday, has Ghio dominated blue fleet.
Best placed British women is Ella Geiger (U21)(U19) in 11th overall and in the Men Rafferty Read (U21) in 10th.
Thursday sees the start of gold and silver fleet finals competition for the men, while the women continue with their fleet racing.
Racing for the men and women will take place on Lake Saint Moritz on Thursday before competition resumes on Silvaplana for the final two days on Friday and Saturday.
