Have noticed that some windfoil brands have foils and boards labelled as FreeRace.
Is there an actual FreeRace class with defined maximum sail/board/foil sizes?

A windfoil race class with max sail of say 7 or 8m2 and max wing of 800cm, that raced a shorter course, may be a good youth and transition class and a more affordable starting point than the FF and iQFoil options.

Starboard just proposed a new youth class with 800cm frontwing, 135L 85wide board with 70 OFO and 6-8m sails depending on age.

This is being promoted in the US as a means to introduce kids to foil racing in sailing programs.
