Every year a small group of dedicated volunteers organizes a schedule of race events for their home waters. They grind through a mountain of details and eventually publish the plan for the race season. Their consistent efforts sustain and nurture a thriving windsurf racing community. These websites provide the true racerheads and the uninitiated a chance to meet and compete.

The CalCup Perpetual Trophy was first awarded in 1991 to Rob Hartman. Soheil Zahedi does a great job keeping the CalCup Website up to date. 2013 Schedule for the Formula Race Series:

The well sponsored, 6 race slalom series is set to begin May 18 at the Hood River Event Site. Thanks to Jay Salzman for the Gorge Cup Website.

Maui Race Series is the ultimate grass roots racing organization.
