MSWC 2017 Major Changes: Exclusive Extended Preview
The International Surfing Federation (FIDSM) has announced several significant changes before the MotoSurf World Championship 2017 (MSWC). The schedule was created for the 4th international championship, which will be held in five countries. In addition to this, five additional local events will be offered to motorsport enthusiasts throughout the year. We will take a closer look at the new MSWC terms, the timing, what affects special events, local races, and more.
Year after year, the FIDSM and the Jetsurf family, which are the starting point of MSWC, are gaining strength and experience. With the main philosophical idea of Martin Sula, which could be summarized as “Look, learn, work and improve continuously”, we should set ourselves even greater goals, using events and technologies in the best way to develop greater productivity, new challenges and impressions.
This article is based on the official MotoSurf World Cup website, as well as on conversations between MSN and MSWC staff. You may notice discrepancies between the information provided here and found on the FIDSM website (the official rules and regulations for the 2014 competitions were not updated with new MSWC features on the FIDSM website).
