Prize Structure

Competition Flights

When the competition ends, athletes are ranked by their final score and divided into 4 tiers, called flights. Think of it like finishing a race and being grouped with everyone who finished around the same time as you.

Each flight competes for its own prizes, which means you're not just up against the top 1% of athletes — you have a real shot at winning within your tier. The better you perform, the higher the flight you land in, and the bigger the prize pool you're competing for.

Winners from each flight receive:
Product prizes from our partners at Red Bull, Qalo, STRIKE MVMNT and Mayhem Nation.
