UK Records

The following are the UK records and record holders.

A UK record can only be set at the World Logging Championship, European Logging Championship and the UK National Championship. Records at other events may be considered by the committee provided it is a full competition run to IALC rules.

To qualify for a UK tree felling record the test must be performed on a tree, mast pole, or long log. Short logs are not eligible. Individual records cannot be set at competitions where short logs are used.
