World Sailing (WS).

Sailing made its Olympic debut at the 1900 Paris Games.

Changing trends

When sailing was first contested at the 1900 Paris Games, the sport was dominated by bigger boats, sometimes with as many as 12 sailors on board, and time handicaps were used to adjudicate the races. Starting from 1924 and increasingly from the 1950s onwards, the trend has been towards smaller and smaller one-design boats with fewer crew members.

The old and the new

Currently in Olympic competition the line-up of boats is a mixture between classes with a long and distinguished history, such as the Star and the Finn, and those reflecting the design and technology advances in the sport, such as the 49er high performance dinghy and RS:X windsurfer.

Racing and identification

Races are sailed in a fleet racing format where fleets of equally-matched boats race around the course in a group. The courses offer a thorough challenge to the racers incorporating upwind, reaching and downwind sailing angles. The boats are identified on the water by national flags on the sails and the crew names on the mainsail.

There are two new additions for the Rio 2016 Olympic Games. The 49erFX skiff has been introduced for women’s sailors and a mixed multihull for male and female sailors to compete side by side.

Scoring

The competitors contest ten regular races (15 for the 49er). Scores are awarded according to finishing positions in each race (1 point for first, 2 points for second, etc) and each boat can discard their worst score. The ten boats with the lowest accumulated scores qualify for the Medal Race. In this shorter 30 minute race, points scored are doubled and added to the opening series’ scores to decide the top ten positions. In the match racing event, the scoring is simple; the first boat across the line wins the match. The teams all compete against each other in a round robin series of matches, with the top teams progressing to the final knockout stages.

Olimpiadi Tokyo 2020: al via le prime regate

Alle Olimpiadi di Tokyo 2020, il 25 Luglio 2021, prederanno il via anche le regate di vela. L’Italia sarà rappresentata in Giappone da 9 atleti su 6 imbarcazioni complessive.

“Fari puntati in primis sul Nacra 17, con i campioni del mondo del 2018 Ruggero Tita e Caterina Banti che vanno a caccia della consacrazione olimpica al termine di un quinquennio fantastico. Doppia chance di medaglia anche nel windsurf grazie a Mattia Camboni e Marta Maggetti, reduci da un’ottimo avvio di stagione ed entrambi possibili pretendenti al podio nelle rispettive flotte”.

Il calendario delle regate parte il 25 Luglio con RS:X maschile, RS:X femminile, Laser maschile, Laser Radial femminile per arrivare il 5 Agosto al Medal Race: 470 maschile, 470 femminile. Termineranno l’8 Agosto 2021.

SAIL 2017 - Michael Booth vince la 1^ Long Distance della SUP Longa di Torbole - 2017

19 settembre 2017 - Un bel successo la gara dedicata al SUP organizzata dal Circolo Surf Torbole nel week end, che per una volta ha potuto apprezzare l’assenza del vento per una disciplina abbastanza nuova per l’Alto lago di Garda! Tra gli atleti partecipanti alla Long Distance, Michael Booth - con il pettorale N. 1 - ha mantenuto lo stesso numero anche al traguardo, vincendo con oltre 1’ 30” di vantaggio su Giordano Bruno Capparella, sui 41’11” impiegati. Primo junior Massimiliano Chiarello  (14 anni) e primo over 40 Fabrizio Gasbarro, quinto assoluto. La gara di circa 9 Km disputata lungo il suggestivo percorso fino a Riva del Garda e ritorno ha visto impegnati quasi 50 concorrenti, che non si sono lasciati scappare l’occasione di vivere il Garda Trentino anche quando non c’è vento e provare a conquistare parte del montepremi di 5000€ messo in palio: momento ideale per lasciare a terra le vele e sfoderare le tecnologiche pagaie sopra ad altrettanto moderne tavole, per impegnarsi in un’attività sportiva alternativa, ma sempre a contatto con l’acqua e la natura, lo Stand Up Paddle appunto. La sfida del Circolo Surf Torbole dunque è stata vinta e, nel giorno in cui è stata ufficializzata l’assegnazione del Mondiale 2019 del windsurf olimpico RS:X proprio al Circolo Surf Torbole, lo stesso club ha dimostrato di saper offrire eventi straordinari anche senza vento! Una coraggiosa sfida che ancora una volta si è dimostrata vincente anche per gli appassionati meno allenati, che hanno potuto divertirsi sia nella short race che nella beach race, gara a batterie su tavole gonfiabili messe a disposizione dall’organizzazione. Vittoria in questa speciale regata di Davide Ionico, seguito da Giordano Bruno Chiapparella; terzo Francesco Mazzei, seguito dal primo junior Pietro Leon Kiaulehn.
