Karel Lavický (born 8 November 1985, in České Budějovice) is a Czech windsurfer, who specializes in Neil Pryde RS:X class.[1][2] As of September 2013, he is ranked no. 62 in the world for the sailboard class by the International Sailing Federation.

Lavicky competed in the men's RS:X class at the 2012 Summer Olympics in London qualifying through the World Championships in Cadiz, Spain.[3] Struggling to attain a top position in the opening series including his black flag violation on the fourth leg, Lavicky accumulated a net score of 296 points for a thirty-sixth-place finish in a fleet of thirty-eight windsurfers.[4][5]
