Freestyle Pro Tour Genoa

Date: 14 October 2026 – 18 October 2026

Location: Genoa, Italy

Organizer: Freestyle Pro Tour

The Freestyle Pro Tour comes to Genoa for the first time in 2026, with a 6-star men's windsurf freestyle event on the Ligurian coast from October 14 to 18. Genoa closes the FPT season, so the title race can come down to these five days, and the venue is not a gentle one. Autumn here means offshore winds, chop and the powerful Tramontana, conditions that reward riders who can handle messy water rather than flat-water specialists. The 2026 calendar mixes established FPT venues with three debuts, in Austria, Turkey and Italy, and Genoa is the last of them. Freestyle windsurfing is judged on tricks: power moves, slides and aerial rotations thrown in short head-to-head heats until one rider is left. A season finale in shifty mid-October Mediterranean weather is a gamble by design. When the Tramontana delivers, this should be one of the best events of the year.
