Thats so weird.... the only skateboarder wrong on my counts is Ryan Decenzo

 

He is out and in his place qualified Jhancarlos Gonzalez

 

Decenzo had 13160 points before the competion... he finished on 15th place, so more 7140 = 20300

 

Gonzalez had 11971, he finished 14th place, so more 7930 = 19901.

 

Why is he qualified and, Decenzo not?

One nation can qualify 12 (!) skateboarders for the Olympics?  I thought there were only going to be one men's event and one women's event..

Expand  

2 events for both sexes. Maximum of three from each nation in each event.

2 x 3 x 2 = 12

wow, so it´s not a fake news then. Great How many will exactly qualify and how many per country ?

Expand  

20 in each event.

Top 3 in World Championship, 16 from world rankings plus 1 from host nation.

Must be 1 competitor from each continent so Africa will probably take the place of the 16th in the world rankings.

Maximum 3 from each country

A guy from Košice won yesterday a "apparently according to our medias something like a World Cup stage" event in Paris Never heard about him, never heard anything about this sport in SVK and never heard anything about this competition...but local medias are trying to persuade me that he can "has a shot" to qualify for the Olympics in Tokyo.

I don't know how accurate these rankings are but if you remove the extra Americans and Brazilians he would be 14th in the rankings and qualify for Tokyo
