The CWSA World Ranking System (WRS) is NOT a point chase system. Your ranking is determined by WHO you compete against, not simply by participating in an event. • To understand how your WRS rank is calculated, please see the video at this link: https://youtu.be/Cykf2EpCj7U (English) or https://youtu.be/hEGFmyaYCkY (Pусский) Qualification Cutoff Date: September 9, 2024 Invitations Send Date: September 13, 2024 Skill Level/Sex Number of Top Ranked Skim Number of Top Ranked Surf Pro Male 10 10 Pro Female 10 10 Outlaw Male 8 8 Outlaw Female 8 8 Amateur Male 10 10 Amateur Female 10 10 Masters Male 8 8 Masters Female 8 8 Juniors Male 6 (combined Skim & Surf) Juniors Female 6 (combined Skim & Surf) Declined Invitations *If an invitation is declined for any reason, including a failure to timely register and pay the registration fee, or is not extended due to a failure to meet the event participation requirement: 1.
