Laraja 1,364 Posted March 16, 2021 #111 Share Posted March 16, 2021 So, I decided to remake the qualification simulation for Skateboarding, after these announces from WS and using their Official Ranking(Without counting National Championship points yet) Looks that we will not have any African country participating at Park Competitions and, perhaps, also at Women's Street. Also, Looks WS will not count Continental Championships anymore, even after European and Oceanian events had already taken place. Then, those are the changes: Men's Street: No big changes, only the position of few skaters on the ranking Women's Street: Changes on their positions on the ranking. And loses two possible quotas, loses one. In their places and get one each. gets one quota for no African Nation. Men's Park: gets one quota for no African Nation. Women's Park: gets one quota for no African Nation. Skateboarding.xlsx Agger, thiago_simoes and phelps 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phelps 6,795 Posted March 17, 2021 #112 Share Posted March 17, 2021 that's good news for Italy... I'd never think Lanzi could make it, but it looks she's lucky enough to sneak in thanks to reallocations... the more athletes we qualify, the better it is for our very "tormented" sport right now...

The street area has a lot of diversity in terms of features. That will create a great comp hopefully. Laraja 1 “Sport has the power to change the world. It has the power to inspire.

Laraja 1,364 Posted April 29, 2021 #117 Share Posted April 29, 2021 The question now... What are they going to do with the three quotas direct from Worlds? I believe they will just use the ranking to fill all the 20 quotas Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If your theory is correct that would put Glifberg pretty close to the Olympics Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If your theory is correct that would put Glifberg pretty close to the Olympics Yes, Dew Tour will be the last event. Yes, he is close, but right now, if we consider the points from national championships, there are other skateboarders in a better position than him. Including another Danish, Dannie Carlsen. As usual WS is a big mess, they took off the points from continental championship and decided adding national points separately. Glifberg was third in Danish Championship, this result is disturbing his way to Tokyo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Media has given Glifberg some decent attention and he has mentioned that 33rd place himself (the rankings without nationals). But I guess if it's the federation that's a mess the skaters may not be aware of that detail. Laraja 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
