Sailing

In Sailing, athletes harness the power of the wind on boats or boards, navigating ever-changing conditions. There are ten events using five different types of equipment: windsurfing, kite, dinghy, skiff and multihull. The sport rewards those who best combine athleticism, strategic thinking and technical racing skills.
