The Epic Record Run
The JP Australia report states that Maciek Rutkowski covered 227.5 km from Sweden to Poland in 8 hours 28 minutes, arriving in W?adys?awowo at 3:28 p.m. after starting at 7:00 a.m. The same report says he reached speeds up to 55 km/h and that the entire route was streamed through a technology-supported production. This row records the time as a publicly reported solo crossing benchmark for the specific Sweden-to-Poland Baltic Sea windfoil route, while the long description preserves the published endurance and safety context rather than reducing the mission to a bare time figure.
Rules of the Beast
Qualifying entries must be solo windfoil crossings from Sweden to Poland completed on a foil-equipped windsurf board using a mounted windsurf rig. The source must provide a total elapsed time for the route and identify the rider. Safety boat accompaniment is allowed, but the rider must make the crossing under windsurf foil power. Later entries should be compared only against the same Sweden-to-Poland crossing concept, not unrelated shorter bay crossings or different seas.
How This Got the Nod
