Alaïa Open – Winter Cup 2022
The Alaïa Open Winter Cup is back from November 4th to 6th 2022. For this 2nd edition, surfers from all over Switzerland and abroad will compete on the waves of Alaïa Bay in water temperatures below 10°C.
This is the coldest event of the tour and more than 80 participants are expected.

The competition format is based on the classic World Surf League events, with qualifying heats on Saturday followed by the finals (quarter, half and final) on Sunday all day.
The event is organized jointly with the Swiss Surfing Association. The Alaïa Open Winter Cup is the last stage of the Edelweiss Surf Tour, a Swiss surfing championship in different styles (static wave, river, wavepool).
