 The Molokai Challenge is one of the oldest ocean paddling (surfski) races in the world and was long considered the unofficial World Championships of surfski racing. It’s still held in very high regard, being the world’s longest open ocean race - 50km from Molokai to Oahu islands. Conditions can be ferocious with gale-force winds and massive, breaking ocean swells. The competitors go downwind, surfing the waves at speeds that can get up to 35kph. The Molokai Challenge is one of the oldest ocean paddling (surfski) races in the world and was long considered the unofficial World Championships of surfski racing.
