Áron Gádorfalvi

Sixteen years after competing in his first Olympics, Gádorfalvi qualified for his fifth Hungarian team, as a 34-year-old, in the RS:X class at the 2012 Summer Olympics in London by finishing twenty-eighth and receiving a berth from the ISAF Sailing World Championships in Perth, Western Australia. Struggling to attain a higher position in the early stages, Gádorfalvi managed to claim two top ten positions throughout the opening rounds, but missed a chance to sail for the medal race with a twenty-fifth-place finish and a net score of 187 points.

At the 2004 Summer Olympics in Athens, Gadorfalvi finished twenty-second in men's Mistral with a net score of 192, trailing Thailand's Arun Homraruen by a scant, three-point gap. At the 2008 Summer Olympics in Beijing, Gadorfalvi delivered his best Olympic career result with a nineteenth-place effort and an overwhelming grade of 135 in the newly introduced RS:X class.

As an 18-year-old, Gádorfalvi made his official debut at the 1996 Summer Olympics in Atlanta, where he placed thirty-ninth in men's Mistral sailboard with a net score of 313 points. At the 2000 Summer Olympics in Sydney, Gádorfalvi produced a stellar performance with a sterling grade of 177 to pick up a twenty-fourth spot in the same program.
