Upcoming World WCMX Online Series Events: The Future of Adaptive Competition Goes Digital

The adaptive skateboarding and WCMX community continues to evolve in exciting ways, and one of the most important developments in the sport is the expansion of the World WCMX Online Series. These events are helping bring international-level competition directly to riders around the world, removing travel barriers and opening the door for more athletes to participate.

Hosted by the International Wheelchair Skateboarding, World WCMX Federation, and the Tomas Woods Foundation, the Online Series is designed to showcase progression, creativity, and consistency in WCMX while connecting athletes across different countries through a shared digital platform.

What Is the World WCMX Online Series?

The World WCMX Online Series is a global competitive format where adaptive athletes submit video runs from their local skateparks. Judges review each entry based on technical difficulty, style, creativity, and overall execution.

Instead of requiring travel to a single location, athletes can compete from their home regions, making the sport more accessible and inclusive for riders who may not otherwise have the opportunity to attend international events.

One important note for athletes registering: you do not need to have your video completed at the time of registration. After registering, competitors will receive an email with the official upload link, and all videos must be submitted before Saturday, May 23rd.

This format has become an important part of the modern WCMX competitive structure, especially as adaptive sports continue expanding globally.

2026 Online Series Schedule

For the 2026 season, the World WCMX Online Series includes three official rounds:

Round 1 – May 29th, 2026
Round 2 – August 28th, 2026
Round 3 Finals – November 6th, 2026

Each round plays a critical role in the overall ranking system, with athletes earning points that contribute toward their final season placement.

How the Online Series Works

Athletes participating in the Online Series typically:

Record a full 90-second WCMX run at a local skatepark
Submit unedited video footage
Perform tricks judged for difficulty, creativity, and consistency
Compete against riders from around the world in the same division

Judges evaluate each submission and rank athletes based on performance consistency across all rounds.

This system allows riders of all backgrounds to compete fairly, regardless of location or access to major events.

Why the Online Series Matters for WCMX Growth

The Online Series is more than just a competition format — it is a major step forward for the accessibility and global reach of adaptive skateboarding.

Some of the biggest benefits include:

Removing travel barriers for athletes
Increasing international participation
Allowing progression from smaller local skateparks
Creating consistent global engagement throughout the year
Providing visibility for new and developing riders

For many athletes, this format is often their first introduction to international-level WCMX competition.

Building a Global Adaptive Community

One of the strongest elements of the Online Series is the sense of connection it creates. Riders from different countries are able to compete under the same scoring system while sharing their progression online.

It also allows communities to showcase their local skateparks and adaptive programs, helping highlight the importance of accessible skatepark design and inclusive action sports programming.

As the sport continues to grow, digital competition formats like this are expected to play a major role in developing future WCMX athletes.

Looking Ahead

With each season, the World WCMX Online Series continues to expand the reach of adaptive skateboarding. The 2026 schedule builds on previous years by offering a structured global platform that supports both new and experienced riders.

As more athletes participate, the Online Series is helping shape the future of WCMX by proving that high-level competition does not need to be limited by geography.

The World WCMX Federation remains committed to growing this platform and continuing to create opportunities for adaptive athletes around the world.
