America One Racing End of the Year Report

Momentum into 2026: Pensacola Training Block
We closed out 2025 with an intensive, highly integrated training block at the new American Magic base in Pensacola, Florida, bringing together athletes, coaches, partners, and performance experts across the Foiling Pipeline and Project Podium programs. Activities included the 3rd Annual Foiling Pipeline Camp featuring Formula Wingfoil and WASZP athletes, the first official training camp with A1R’s new SWITCH fleet, and the Second Annual Project Podium Sport Science Camp.
This training block exemplified A1R’s methodology: shared learning, transferable development tools, and operational efficiency—connecting foiling, and Olympic pathways within a single high-performance ecosystem. The Pensacola training block also advanced key priorities in coaching development, athlete safety, and sport science integration, while establishing a strong operational base to support athletes and coaches as they move into the next phase of their campaigns toward LA2028.
