PRO points Table
The total of each skier’s Pro Points is used to determine their position on the Tour Leaderboard.
Not all Pro Points contribute; only the best few results of each skier count towards their Pro Point total. The number of Pro Events that contribute Pro Points to each skier’s total is determined by the total number of Pro Events scheduled on the day the season starts.
If a skier is awarded Pro Points below the level of their worst contributing result the points are not used at all.
