iQFOiL is a windsurfing class selected by World Sailing to replace the RS:X for the 2024 Summer Olympics. The discipline has similarities to Formula Windsurfing, however a notable difference is that sailors only use one sail. The sail size was originally 9 m2 for the men and 8 m2 for the women. The rider has a choice between using a hydrofoil or a conventional 68 cm fin.
== Equipment Evolution == Starting in January 2025 there are equipment changes: Men will switch from the 9 m2 sail to an 8 m2 (previous Female and Youth design) sail. Female and Female Youth change from the 8 m2 sail to a new design 7.3 m2 sail. Both categories adopt the existing 4.90 m mast to align with the revised sail sizes.
