More Methodology:
In the current 2025/26 season, the WPH will count all five stops toward the season’s rankings (for Elite Men). Right now, there are 9 events that count toward the rankings. How will those 9 stops get eliminated throughout the season?
Here is how we will get down to five events:
At the completion of PDX 2025 we will drop Memorial 2024 and Portland 2024, leaving us with 8 events
At the completion of Memorial 2025 we will temporarily have 9 events
At the completion of Missouri 2026 we will drop Icebreaker 2024 and Montana 2025, leaving us with 8 events
At the completion of LAAC 2026 it will be the last event prior to SLC 2026 so we will drop Juarez 2025, LAAC 2025, HOF 2025, Texas 2025, and SLC 2025, leaving us with four events
At the completion of SLC 2026 in addition to the prior four events we will finish the season with five events
