How do skateboarders qualify for the Paris Olympics?
Qualification for the 2024 Olympics was determined by the world skateboarding rankings maintained by the sport's governing body, World Skate. The qualification period, which included two years worth of competitions, ended on June 23, 2024.
Qualifying was broken into two phases:
- Phase 1 ended in May and was based on results from all contests up to that point. The top 44 skaters in each discipline were then invited to compete in the Olympic Qualifier Series (Phase 2).
- Phase 2 was the Olympic Qualifier Series, which consisted of two separate competitions. The first took place in Shanghai in May, and the second took place in Budapest in June.
For the final rankings, one-third of the points came from Phase 1, and one-third came from each of the two Olympic Qualifier Series events.
For each discipline, 20 athletes qualified for the Olympics based on the world rankings. Each nation is limited to a maximum of three athletes per gender in each discipline. Each continent is guaranteed at least one athlete per discipline.
Additionally, France is guaranteed a spot in each discipline as the Olympics host nation, and one spot in each event is reserved for a universality invitation, which is given to an athlete from a country with a historically small Olympic delegation.
