South Africa’s Mark Keeling won the men’s surfski single at the Fortaleza Canoe Ocean Racing World Cup in 1:49:11.054. Brazil’s Alexandre Felipe Nascimento Ferreira took silver in 1:54:45.859, followed by Luiz Wagner Pecoraro in 1:55:45.109.

Ariela Pinto led a Brazilian sweep of the women’s podium. Her 2:26:17.757 winning time put her ahead of Mariana Muriel Victorio Falconi in 2:27:01.007 and Bruna De Abreu Liborio in 2:30:30.460. Keeling’s victory prevented the hosts from taking both senior titles.

The World Cup formed part of the eighth MolokaBRA wind and open-water sports festival. Its official event window was 18–21 September, with the federation publishing the result account on 22 September. The report records this specific circuit stage, separate from earlier World Cup meetings and without extrapolating a final season ranking.
