ALEC DOWNWIND CLASSIC 2026

Описание: The Dubai Downwind Classic at the Dubai Offshore Sailing Club (DOSC) is a celebrated paddling event organised by DOSC Ocean Paddlers that tests both endurance and skill on the open waters off Dubai’s stunning coastline. It forms part of a vibrant racing season that brings together paddlers of all levels — from passionate amateurs to seasoned athletes — in a thrilling downwind format race that takes advantage of the region’s favourable wind and sea conditions.

Participants can choose from varying course distances, with both short and long downwind legs mapped out based on conditions determined at the pre-race briefing. The race challenges competitors’ ability to harness wind and wave, inspiring fierce competition yet camaraderie among the paddling community. After crossing the finish line, racers and supporters alike gather for a relaxed prize-giving and social celebration on the lawn at DOSC to recognise top performances and share stories from the water.

Whether you’re chasing a personal best or just soaking in the atmosphere of one of Dubai’s most dynamic paddle sports events, the Dubai Downwind Classic captures the spirit of adventure, sport, and community that defines Ocean Paddlers at DOSC.
