Jurij Scheibler finished second at the Upper Austria SFT Pump Foil World Cup in Rindbach on the Traunsee, the grand final of the 2026 Surf Foil World Tour pump foil season. Only Switzerland's Edan Fiander, who won three of the four races and defended his overall title, finished ahead of him.
Over the four races Jurij finished 2nd, 4th, 3rd and 8th. With each rider's worst race dropped, that gave him 9 points, 1.7 clear of France's Titouan Tournus in third, and it left him third in the overall 2026 World Cup ranking.
"I raced very consistently," said Jurij. "The good starts laid the foundation for second place. More is always possible, but I'm very satisfied with the result."
It rounds off a strong season for the Austrian, who also took third in men's dock-start pump at the SFT World Cup on Lake Garda in July. In the women's racing on the Traunsee, AXIS team mate Marnie Bertram won all four races and the overall World Cup.
