The Tale From the Foil Vault
The accessible search result for an AXIS Foils Instagram reel states that AXIS NZ team rider Dylan Bez raised the bar by foiling for over three hours straight and setting a new world record in the process. The public snippet does not provide the exact duration, location, rules, or whether the attempt was fully wave-started prone foil versus another pump or surf-foil setup. Because it is directly framed as a world record by a foil brand and appears in the progression between Oskar's 2022 record and the later 2024 Waikiki video, this row is included as a social-source progression entry with strong caveats.
Rules of the Beast
The timer starts when the rider rises onto foil from a prone or surf-foil wave start and stops when the rider falls, intentionally dismounts, or can no longer maintain foil flight. The rider may pump out and reconnect to waves, but must return under human pumping and wave energy only. No boat, kite, wing, paddle, motor, Foil Drive, eFoil propulsion, tow rope, shore assistance, or nutrition handed from another person may be used during the timed ride. Backwash, sidewash, or artificial reverb that creates a special unlimited conveyor-belt route should be declared separately.
