The Epic Record Run
Annie Reickert's 2024 M2O foil result dropped the listed women's champion time again, this time to 2:27:12. The progression shows how rapidly the women's foil field improved as equipment and downwind race tactics matured. This row is part of the official M2O time series, not a universal speed record, because the benchmark is tied to one race course.
Rules of the Beast
Eligible results must come from the official Molokai 2 Oahu Paddleboard World Championships foil division records or official race result publications. The attempt must be on the recognized Molokai to Oahu channel race course, with the athlete starting in the official foil start and finishing under event timing rules. Lower elapsed time wins. Official event requirements, such as board number stickers, race jerseys, GPS tracking backup, class wave starts, escort or unescorted safety rules, and finish-line athlete number communication, are treated as part of the record framework. Because the race course and annual conditions vary, these records are recorded as official race-course records, not as universal open-water speed records. This women's paddle-powered foil class tracks the official champion progression for the Molokai to Oahu foil course.
