- Championship Racing - course racing using windward/leeward, trapezoid or other formats - potentially with reaching starts
- Reverse Grid - handicap based pursuit racing
- Slalom –a short downwind format including multiple gybe marks
- Marathon – the course may include upwind and downwind legs run over a long distance
Additionally, GPS based speed trials for best peak speed and 10 second average will be conducted during each race session.
