YOURSELF INTO THE

EUROPEAN SLACKLINE CUP

Competitors in the European Slackline Cup – 2019 Online Qualifiers will compete for 13 spots of the 16 places available in the competition, the other 3 places are going sorted out with wildcard/invitation.

The qualifier round is made up of 2 heats in which the competitor will attempt to score as high as possible to qualify.

A cut-off score will be established after the first heat of the round by the organization. Scores of the competitors who did not score above the cut-off will be highlighted in red on the contest results page and will have an opportunity in the second heat of the round to score above the cut-off.

After the second heat of the round, all the scores will be published and competitors who have qualified will be selected to the 13 places. The trickliners that got  the best score of their country, as long as its over the cut-off score, will be automaticly qualified.

If the 13 spots are not filled due to lack of best scores over the cut-off (less than 13 countries have a best score over cut-off) , the remaining spots will be given to the second best scores, of each country, over cut-off.

The selection for the 13 places is going to be by:
1. the best score of each country over the 2 heats cut-off.
2. Best second score of each country over the 2 heats cut-off, picked by the highest score to the lowest.
3. Best third score of each country over the 2 heats cut-off, picked by the highest score to the lowest,

The scores from the first heat will be revealed at the start of the second heat so competitors know how many more points they need to get have the opportunity to qualify. The final results will be announced, in the second day of June, 2019.
