Early life and water sports

Since the age of six, Gäbler has been a dedicated dressage and show-jumping rider, as well as a warmblood horse breeder. In swimming, she became a Danish champion (DGI-Landsmester) in short-distance 50-meter freestyle swimming and a vice-champion in 100-meter backstroke swimming. She continued competing in masters events and won gold at the 2018 Danish DOM-L Masters Championship in the 100-meter backstroke and the 50-meter and 100-meter freestyle.[1]

Sailing career

From 2005 to 2008, Gäbler worked as a sailing coach for Roland Gaebler and Gunnar Struckmann during their final Olympic campaign in the 2008 Tornado class. In May 2009, she and Gaebler began sailing the Tornado class together, forming "Team Gäbler" and campaigning to return the multihull and Tornado to the Olympic program.[2]

In 2011, she served as a tactician for Team Extreme with Gaebler on their Extreme 40 during the Extreme Sailing Series events in Cowes and Almería.[3] In 2013, she and Gaebler joined Sailing Team Germany as part of the national Olympic team for the Nacra 17 class.[4] In the new Olympic Nacra 17 mixed catamaran class, Nahid and Allan Nørregaard finished 27th overall (2nd in the silver fleet) at the 2013 World Championship in The Hague.[5][6][7]
