Rachel Ferrington's 8.82-Second Stock Saw World Record

Rachel Ferrington picked up timbersports in 2023. Two years later, in the first heat of the 2025 British Women's Championship at the Royal Three Counties Show in Malvern, she cut two full cookies from the log in 8.82 seconds and rewrote the women's Stock Saw world record. The official STIHL TIMBERSPORTS database lists her mark at the top of the discipline, nearly eight tenths clear of the next best time ever recorded. From Hay-on-Wye, Wales, and barely two seasons into the sport, Ferrington proved the fastest saw in the world can come from anywhere.
