Racing season is underway and what a busy time it’s been so far! Here I recap the 2024 European Championships, Trofeo Sofia Regatta, Semaine Olympique Francaise regatta, and preparatioj for the World Championships.

It’s Olympic year! And it’s off to a busy start: sailing in Mexico, gym training at Red Bull in LA, and a quick trip to New York with Ralph Lauren.

The Road to Paris continues with lots of gym training, another gold from the PanAm Games, and a stopover in Hollywood with Team USA and NBC Studios.

It’s official - I’m going to the Olympics! Find out how you can contribute to my mission of winning an Olympic medal for the United States, and learn more about what life is like on the road to Paris.

It was a long, hot summer in the south of France. With plenty of training hours under my belt, I was ready to race at the Olympic Test Event, where I moved one step closer to qualifying for the 2024 Olympics.

Follow as I prepare for the beginning of the international racing season - there’s training in Mexico, followed by intense racing in Europe, and some struggles with burnout.

2023 is off to quite the start! US Olympic selection is underway, I celebrated my 22nd birthday, and was awarded my 4th Rolex Yachtswoman of the Year Award. Not too bad…

Finishing off the racing season is always followed by a deep breath of relief (ahhhh) and some valuable time off. Not long after, it’s straight back to training, and this time I headed to Hyeres & Miami.

After a long and slightly disappointing summer, I was fired up to come back stronger than ever. Read about how I prepared for the world championships and got the job done in winning my 6th consecutive world title.

This summer was… so difficult. It was fun, of course, but it was extremely mentally challenging in ways I had never experienced. Nevertheless, I continued to embrace the process, keep learning, and fighting until the end.

Recapping the Hyeres Olympic classes regatta where I got to work with Chris Draper, followed by finishing school in Hawaii and going full time with my Olympic Campaign.

After an extremely busy lead up to the prestigious Princess Sofia Regatta, I found myself off pace and in unfamiliar territory. It was an unparalleled learning experience, and I was able to comeback to take the regatta win in a dramatic final.

From training in Baja to starting my last semester at school to SailGP season 2 finale! And something about another Rolex?! It was a busy first quarter of 2022.

A summary of 2021 which included 5 major international kite racing regatta wins, joining the US SailGP team, over 6 months training and racing abroad, my 5th consecutive world championship title, and a whole lot of foiling.

After the world championships, I took time to rest, recover, and reset for the next racing season. I take time off through other activities like surfing and sailing, which allows me to feel refreshed and find new motivation for the next big training block.

Dive into depth about my preparation and performance at the 2021 World Championships, where I claimed my 5th consecutive world title.

From training in the bay area back to Europe! A new top speed at SailGP Denmark, immediately followed by training and racing at the Formula Kite European Championships.

A summer for the books - kite training at home, WASZP sailing, winning the first stop of the 2021 Kite Foil World Series, and my experience at SailGP Plymouth.

Follow my journey from SailGP Bermuda to a European kite training block, complete with two regatta wins and finishing off with SailGP Taranto.

U.S. SailGP Team Helmsman Jimmy Spithill: “Daniela brings to our team an impressive amount of foiling ability which is paramount to racing at this level. We’re excited to welcome her to the roster and develop her talent further.”
