Event notes

Mox, The Dragon Run 2025 Short Course
The event is an international surfski and outrigger championship which takes place in Hong Kong on Saturday, November 8, 2025. The Short Course race will be open to single and double surf skis, OC1s and OC2s and sea kayaks. The course is 10km in length and will start at St. Stephen's Beach, proceed to a buoy near the yellow marker at Cape D'aguilar, and then finish at St. Stephen's Beach. While it is shorter than the long course, it can be very challenging if the 

seasonal monsoon winds are blowing. This is a race for intermediate paddlers, not novice or beginner paddlers. Please see Mox, The Dragon Run website for the course map and Google Earth link.

 

VENUE:
Start and finish will be held at the Hong Kong Federation of Youth Groups (HKFYG) St. Stephen’s Beach. The complete schedule will be provided closer to the race date.  Boats can be stored safely at HKFYG prior to the event and for two weeks after the race.
