Skateboarding at each Olympic Qualifier series event accounts for 1/3 of the athletes points. 1/3 of their points will be from the OWSR rankings between the period of January 2022-March 2024, 1/3 points from OQS Shanghai, 1/3 points from OQS Budapest. Each team is allowed a maximum of 3 athletes per discipline, per gender. This means Team USA could have up to 12 skateboarders in Paris.
