How the KiteFoil World Series ranking works
Individual Rankings
For 4 and 5 star events:
- Events with more than 15000 EUR/USD prizemoney: 100 points
- Events with more than 30000 EUR/USD prizemoney: 200 points
The winner of an event receives the maximum number of points, the second place 1 point less etc. If there are more than 100 (200) competitors, remaining competitors all receive 1 point. Men and women are scored together.
Separate Womens's, Youth (U19) and Master / Grandmaster rankings are calculated by simple extraction from the overall individual rankings
Industry Rankings
The points of the best male and female competitor of a brand are added together as the manufacturer's score.
Separate rankings are maintained for kite and hydrofoil manufacturers.
