Skateboarding and BMX Global Rankings
The Boardr Global Ranks are based on performance in competitions.
The data behind it is our Skateboarder and BMX Database, the most complete and up to date list there is. We've been maintaining it daily since 2013.
We log results from all publicly published skateboarding and BMX competitions we know of. Each is assigned a point value based on a variety of factors about the event. The top 20 placings in that event are then awarded a certain percentage of the points to calculate these rankings. Events with divisions that have fewer than five riders get allocated half the points due to the lower level of competition. For Advanced divisions, points are cut in half when there are fewer than three riders rather than five.
Placings in each event earn these percentages of the points allocated to that event: 1st gets 20% of the points, 2nd gets 15%, 3rd gets 12%, 4th gets 9%, 5th gets 8%, 6th gets 7%, 7th gets 6%, 8th gets 5%, 9th gets 4%, 10th gets 3%, 11th gets 2%, and 12th through 20th places get 1%, for a total of 100% of the points for that event.
