FAQ
Common questions
Do I need a separate Pro submission?
No. Submit a normal verified hang. If your time clears the threshold for your gender and weight class, you are automatically in Pro class.
Can an open (unverified) hang qualify?
No. Pro class requires a verified hang that meets the official rulebook standards for equipment, video, and review.
How is my weight class set?
By bodyweight on your verified submission. Your class is locked to that weigh-in for ranking purposes. See the rulebook for details.
What happens when founding 50 fills?
Founding class is reserved for the first 50 qualifiers. After that, new Pros still earn Pro class and rank in their weight division. Founding status simply closes.
