The Story Behind the Record
Surf Foil World Tour reported that the first SFT Pump Foil World Champions were crowned after seven global tour stops and a finale at Lake Traunsee. The women's podium named Viola Lippitsch of Austria and called her the first Women's Pump Foil World Champion. The accessible source does not provide the exact event day, so the row uses month precision for September 2025.
Rules of the Beast
The athlete must be publicly identified by the Surf Foil World Tour or the event organizer as the first women's Pump Foil World Champion. The result should come from a season or championship structure rather than a casual session.
