Pia Dahl Andersen and Nora Edland won the 49er FX World Championship on Norway's Constitution Day, May 17, claiming Norway's first world title in an active Olympic class in 23 years.▶ 0:00 The championship ran six days in cold, variable conditions at Kibberå, including one day cancelled for excessive wind and one day of racing in heavy rain and strong breeze.▶ 1:05 The pair entered the gold fleet ranked outside the top 10, climbed to fifth place with equal points to fourth after three strong races on the penultimate day, then attacked the final two days to overtake Spain, who led by ten points going into the medal race.▶ 2:40 Spain needed only two mediocre results to win but had a poor final day.▶ 3:51 Pia had been managing compartment syndrome in her forearms — a condition that caused her grip to fail at the World Cup in Palma, where they still finished ninth — and reduced training load and sailing volume by roughly 50 percent before the championship.▶ 4:43 The pair bought a new gennaker mid-regatta after the old one tore on a heavy-wind day, adding to equipment debt they had already accumulated on credit.▶ 18:05 Confirmation of the gold came roughly ten minutes after finishing, delivered by coach Gasper, who had logged approximately 1,300 days on the water coaching the 49er FX class.▶ 15:33 Their next targets are Kiel, the European Championship in July, and a trip to Los Angeles in August to test the Olympic course.▶ 7:19
