I have a question that maybe dumb but not sure if it is throughly explained on the PDF:

 

How does reallocation happen AFTER july 7? does it go the same way? 

 

And I wonder if WA will release all Universality places by next week as well

Effectively, yes. They remove all those who refuse a quote (for whatever reason) and then work their way down the rankings. Those below the line have to indicate if they’re willing/able to accept it so there isn’t a third round of allocations.

Thanks for the heads up. Does anybody know how about Thobias Montler? I know that he did not participate in ECH this year but he won the national championship with 765cm on June 28th. Will he be going to Paris? 

Well, I bring you good news.

 

 Lester Lescay is waiting for  nationality that wont arrive in time so he will not be going to Paris. So I think your guy is in....

Wow, that would be cool, thanks. But won't Lescay rather represent Cuba now and switch the citizenship after the games? Or Cuba Olympic committee would not nominate him?

Lescay is exiliated from Cuba, wont be happening. He already has the date for starting representing Spain, in 2025. Going to the olympics with Cuba would mean that he has to wait until 2027 at least. Is not going to happend.

True, forgot about the waiting time when you switch nationality. Well, let's see how it goes, whether his passport arrives on time or not. I know that this time is really tight.
