MotoSurf champions on the 2025 and 2026 rulebooks

13 riders, read off the front covers of two rulebooks, because the covers are the only place either document names a rider at all.

Why a cover, and why only a cover

Neither edition contains a results table, a championship standing, a list of past champions or a ratified record. The 2026 edition reserves its records article and says what that means in its own words.

So no document ranks the riders below: two covers credit them with a title, and nothing more.

How these names were read

Both covers are set in three columns that the text copy runs together, so each name was matched to its class from a layout the copy no longer shows. Treat each pairing as read from that copy, not from the printed cover; an image of the cover would settle any pairing. Each entry also gives the cover's own capitals.

The 2026 cover (8)

Class as the cover titles it	Rider, country (as the cover prints it)
Elite Class	Matyáš Novotný, Czechia (NOVOTNÝ) both covers
Women Class	Eliška Matoušková, Czechia (MATOUŠKOVÁ) both covers
Stock Class	Antony Squire, USA (SQUIRE)
Stock R – Merlin Plus Class	Mike Michaelides, Cyprus (MICHAELIDES) Champion of a class the 2026 rulebook does not define. Stock R appears exactly once in the whole 2026 document, on this cover. It was a real class in 2025, defined at Art. 3.1.4. What "Merlin Plus" is, neither edition says: the word occurs once per document, both times in this class title.
Masters	Down Kim, South Korea (KIM) both covers The promoter prints the same given name, Down, in every standings table from 2022 to 2026 and in its race reports, so it is recorded as published.
Electric Challenge	Yano Vankersbilck, Belgium (VANKERSBILCK)
Junior Boys	Matyáš Barvík, Czechia (BARVÍK, Czech Republic) The cover prints the country as Czech Republic here and as Czechia in the senior classes, within one page. This site gives the country as Czechia, and this entry still shows the spelling the cover used.
Junior Girls	Ellen Burdová, Czechia (BURDOVÁ, Czech Republic)

The 2025 cover (8)

Class as the cover titles it	Rider, country (as the cover prints it)
Elite Class	Matyáš Novotný, Czechia (NOVOTNÝ) both covers
Women Class	Eliška Matoušková, Czechia (MATOUŠKOVÁ) both covers
Stock Class	Minseong Kim, South Korea (KIM)
Stock R – Merlin Plus Class	Denis Dusílek, Czechia (DUSÍLEK) Stock R was a fully defined class in the 2025 edition, at Art. 3.1.4, with its own age band, lap chart and group allocation.
Electric Challenge	Lukáš Záhorský, Czechia (ZÁHORSKÝ)
Masters	Down Kim, South Korea (KIM) both covers
Junior Boys	Sebastian Kostelecký, Czechia (KOSTELECKÝ)
Junior Girls	Kristýna HRBKOVÀ, Czechia (HRBKOVÀ) The surname as published ends in a grave accent. Czech has no grave accent and every comparable name in both documents takes an acute, so this is very probably a fault in the document. It is reproduced exactly as printed and is deliberately not corrected: guessing at the spelling of a real person's name is not a repair. That is also why the name at the top of this entry keeps the cover's capitals, where every other entry is in sentence case.
