Three names engraved together. $5,000 split evenly, and the crew plate on the cup.
The trophy
The Razor Cup does not live in our office
It is struck once, engraved after every edition, and it travels: the champion's national federation holds it until the next championship, where it is defended. A champion keeps a full-size replica, a custom kite in their own colors, and a seeded place in the following edition.
Engraved on finals night
The cup is cut on the field, in front of the crowd, before the champion leaves the podium.
Held by a country
The champion's national federation keeps it until the next edition, where it must be defended.
A replica to keep
Champions keep a full-size replica, a custom kite in their colors and a seeded draw place.
One cup, both classes
Individual and crew plates sit on the same trophy — a founding-edition decision, kept permanently.
