World Championships Long Distance, Sabaudia

The 2026 ICF SUP World Championships long distance course on Lago di Paola: four laps of about 3 km from the water beside the Navy rowing centre, south down the lake and back, then out to the end of the north-east arm.

Provisional line · Men 14': race-calibrated · Women 14': race-calibrated

Provisional line: drawn from the organizer's course map, not yet measured. Times on it are provisional until a measured GPS trace verifies it. The south turn is fitted to the organizer's 3 km, not seen on the water: a finisher's GPS track would place it. The organizer's map is an illustration over a satellite photo, and its buoys were laid for the 2026 race only. On the last lap the race finished at a separate finish line beside the venue; the course uses the lap's start line for both.

Even pace by distance: each split is the reference time times the share of the course paddled by that gate, measured along the course line. Nobody paddles a course at a perfectly even pace, and on a leg into the wind you will fall behind these splits and make it back on the leg home.

Course Board

No course times on the board yet. Run this course with the Supconnect app and put your time on the board.

One time per paddler per board: their fastest, recorded live in the app and checked against the course. Only adults are shown.

This line is provisional, not yet measured: times on it, and their Virtual Power Score, are provisional until a measured GPS trace verifies it.

Paddlers On This Course

How Course Times Work

A course time is your time on this course, paddled on your own on a day you choose: from the start gate to the finish gate, through every gate in order. It is not a race result. There is no field to beat, and wind, current and water change from day to day, so a time always shows with its date, board class and the wind at the start.

The Virtual Power Score is a translation of a course time to the Power Score scale, with a band, worked out from the times and ratings of the race this course mirrors. It is labelled as virtual everywhere it appears. It is never in the Power Score: not in any rankings table, the Overall, Compare, the nations, a Top 10 or search, and it never moves anyone's rating.

Course times are private unless you put one on the board. Only adults appear on a board, and a junior is never named. More on course times →

The long distance course of the 2026 world championships: four laps of about 1.9 mi (3 km) on Lago di Paola at Sabaudia, 7.5 mi (12 km) in all, with the start and finish on the water just south of the Ponte Giovanni XXIII, beside the Navy rowing centre.

Each lap runs south down the main arm of the lake to a turn and back north, then east into the north-east arm to a turn near its end and back to the start. On your own there are no buoys, so the gates are lines across the water: the start line just south of the bridge, a line across the main arm at the south turn, and a line across the north-east arm near its end. The south turn is placed to make the organizer's 3 km lap and may move once a finisher's track is in.

Sources

Course line (version 1): Drawn from the organizer's map (Last Information, page 17): a 3 km lap from the start just south of the Ponte Giovanni XXIII, south down the main arm of the lake to a turn buoy and back north, then east to a turn buoy at the end of the north-east arm and back to the start. The map gives no buoy positions, so the turns are lines across the water from OpenStreetMap (the lake outline, way 24236576): the north-east turn sits where the map puts it, at the end of the arm; the south turn is placed so that one lap measures the organizer's 3 km. The drawn line measures 2,996 m a lap, 11,984 m for four.

Gate 1: OSM: shore to shore, parallel to the bridge (way 41953123) about 120 m south of it, from the west shore (node 894772674) to the point below the venue (node 894553042), both on the lake outline, way 24236576
Gate 2: OSM: shore to shore across the main arm, from node 894772749 on the west shore to the east shore, both on the lake outline, way 24236576; its latitude is fitted to the organizer's 3 km lap
Gate 3: OSM: shore to shore near the end of the north-east arm, node 894553049 to node 710906357 on the lake outline, way 24236576, where the organizer's map puts the turn buoy
