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..

Seems that someone is not looking at my updates 

 

Seizing the opportunity....

 

The World Skate has not updated the ranking yet. Not even the calendar of the second season. But, there was the first qualifying event of the second season a couple of weeks ago, The European Street Championships.

The next tournament, The Oi STU Open in Rio de Janeiro.

New update on olympic racing of Skateboarding after Oi Stu Open in Rio de Janeiro.

 

 

It's unbelievable the incapacity of WS to provide a decent World Ranking. Another time they changed the points earned for some skaters in past events. For example, Yuzuki Mizote  got 268 points in the first competition(They released the first WR with this pontuation). Now, in the new update from WS, she has 269 points(She hasn't participated in any other event since then). Ok, it's only one point, but this could not happen from an official federation. Who knows if this miserable point may be the difference between get in or get out of the olympics?

 

For some reason, WS is not counting the points earned on European Street Championships, even it being an Olympic qualifying event.

 

Another mistake is the duplicity of skateboarders. They are not careful with the athlete names. Another example, Ariadne Souza  and Ariandne Silveira  are listed on WR, but they are the same person  (I've already alerted them about the mistake with the  Skateboarder Greg Ruhoff, and It seems they've repaired this.)

 

Here it's my new update of the qualified skateboarders so far, based on the last released from WS.(That's counting the points from ESC, because of that, the ranking may have a few mistakes in Street Competition)

According to the last press release from WS last year, this association and SLS should have made a joint communication until the end of 2019(which did not happen).

 

Despite of that, World Skate has published a new Olympic Qualification Event in its website. It seems be part of SLS Tour(They haven't confirmed the SLS Tour events for 2020)

 

The event will be: World Skate SLS Pro Tour - Tokyo 2020 Qualification Event in Melbourne, Australia (04 - 09 February)

Is this going to be a direct qualifier or part of the ranking?

Part of the ranking. The only competitions which will be direct qualifier are the World Championships in London(Street) and Nanjing(Park), both in May.
