The Story Behind the Record
Nani Dalene's 2023 result is the first listed women's wing foil champion time in the official M2O foil records table. The 2:10:02 time created the early women's wing-powered benchmark for the channel course. It is tracked separately from paddle-powered foil because the power source is a handheld wing, but the course and downwind routing make it part of the broader Downwind Foiling records set.
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 class is for official women's wing foil results on the M2O foil course, where a handheld wing powers the foilboard across the downwind channel route.
