The women sailed WASZP one-person foiling dinghies, giving Slingsby the chance to assess their potential ability on the 50-foot foiling catamarans used in SailGP. Slingsby said. "There's a lot of training ahead. We've seen some amazing male sailors who have been dropped out of SailGP because they just couldn't keep up. By no means is it going to be easy, but I just think it's great to give them the opportunity for them to come and live and train with team and see what it's all about and then if they're good enough, they'll make it."
