This was our first session testing downhill skateboarding aerodynamics in a controlled environment, and it was an incredible day, packed with insights and development. Riders took away key learnings on everything from helmet choice and hand placement to busting a few long-standing downhill myths!
Huge thanks to the team at Silverstone for the support. This is just the start of our journey into data-driven speed! 🛹⚙️

🚀 Wind Tunnel Testing Day at Silverstone 🏁

Huge thanks to the incredible team at the Silverstone Sports Engineering Hub for hosting our first WGSF Development Day.

Riders had the chance to test their tucks, setups, and gear in a world-class wind tunnel — gathering real aerodynamic data, photos, and videos to fine-tune performance. The results were seriously eye-opening.

This was just the start — we’re already planning to expand this project with more testing dates to give even more riders the opportunity to get involved and push the sport forward.

Big thanks to everyone who came out, and to Silverstone’s staff for their support and expertise throughout the day. 🙌

📸 Check out some shots from the day below — and keep an eye out for future dates coming soon!

WGSF Launches Rider Development with Wind Tunnel Testing Day at Silverstone

The World Gravity Sports Federation (WGSF) has announced its first ever Rider Development Day, taking place on Sunday 12th October 2025 at the prestigious Silverstone Sports Hub. This groundbreaking event will give downhill and gravity sports athletes the opportunity to test and optimise their aerodynamics in a professional wind tunnel environment — the same kind of facility used by elite motorsport and cycling teams.

The WGSF Development Day: Wind Tunnel Testing at Silverstone will run from 9am–3pm, with riders arriving from 8am for briefing. Places are strictly limited to 15 riders and will be allocated on a first come, first served basis.

Participants will have at least two full sessions in the wind tunnel, starting with a baseline test before comparing variations in tuck position, equipment, helmet choice, leathers, and fairings. Each run will be precisely measured for drag, surface area, and downforce over a 10-second period, with side-by-side photo and video comparisons for each setup.

“Having tested the tunnel myself earlier this year, I was blown away by the data and how much difference even small changes can make,” said Will Stephenson, WGSF Director and event coordinator. “This is the start of what we want WGSF to be doing — supporting research and development that benefits riders directly, and ultimately pushes the sport forward.”

The cost for the day is £299 for WGSF members and £350 for non-members, which includes:

- At least two wind tunnel sessions

- Electronic copies of all test data and results

- Photos and videos from each run

- Expert support from Silverstone staff and on-site coordination by Will Stephenson

Registration opens on Wednesday 20th August 2025 via the WGSF website, and will close as soon as the 15 spots are filled. Once registered, riders will be sent a Google Form to detail what equipment and positions they want to test.
