Roller Freestyle now has its official World Cup according to the collaboration between FIRS and FISE - the Festival International des Sports Extrêmes - that this year turned the 20th year. The challenge for Roller Freestyle riders will be even more important: winning both the FIRS Roller Freestyle World cup and the FISE World Series. The points of each stage will be counted up for the stage’s ranking but also for the World tour and thus the overall ranking. Thus, the best Montpellier riders will be directly qualified for the 2017 Roller Freestyle World Championships, from September 2 to September 3 in Nanjing (China) during the FIRS World Roller Games. Judges will evaluate the difficulty of the tricks but also the general appreciation of each appearance.
