The men's iQFoil competition at the 2024 Summer Olympics was the men's windsurfer event and was held in Marseille, France, from 29 July to 2 August 2024.[1] It is the first men's windsurfing competition to use the iQFoil craft, which replaces the vessels that had been used in the previous four Olympics.[2]

24 sailors from 24 nations competed in 13 opening series races.[3] The boat finishing first will compete directly in the final, while the second and third-ranked boats will appear in the semi-finals. Boats ranked fourth to 10th will feature in the quarter-finals, from which the top two will make it to the semi-finals. The top two boats in the semi-finals will join the first-ranked team from the opening series in the final race.

A boat's final rank will be relative to its finishing place in the race it was eliminated. For instance, boats in the final are ranked ahead of the semi-final participants, boats in the quarter-finals are ranked ahead of the opening series participants.
