Adventure begins when you leave the dock.
The 10K Freefoil Challenge is a community endurance challenge created to inspire human-powered exploration by foil. It’s about leaving the dock, committing to a journey, and making it back under your own power. It is a challenge that will push both your fitness and your comfort zone - and take you further than you thought possible.
Completed the Challenge?
The Rules
-
The Journey:
- Complete a 10 km round-trip pumpfoil journey, stopping and relaunching as much as you like.
-
The Requirements:
- 10 km on foil under human power — no kites, motors, surfing or downwind-only routes. Only distance traveled while pumpfoiling counts toward the 10 km total.
- Journey at least 2 km away from your starting point — the challenge is intended as a journey, not a series of laps around a single location.
- The route must finish where it started — short swims and walks are part of the adventure, but long hikes, bike rides, or shuttles back do not count.
-
The Proof:
- Record your session with
FoilMotion or
Foil Sessions to automatically validate your journey and earn a digital 10K badge*. If you use another GPS app, estimate the distance of your foiling route and count only the distance traveled on foil.
- Inspire others by posting your route, photos and stories online, sharing a link to freefoil10k.com. If you don't know where you should post, the Dock Start Facebook group is great place.
