Three judges were on stage at the Awards Show to provide their take on the winning submissions: Christi Hughes for BMX freestyle, Susan Reekers for skateboarding, and BBOY Spin for breaking.

Having judged the world's biggest competitions in their sports, including at the Olympic level, it was their decision that determined which 21 contestants won an unforgettable VIP trip to the first-ever Olympic Qualifier Series Event in May 2024. There they will get to go backstage and meet some of the best athletes in their sport who are making their final push to secure quotas for Paris 2024.

In addition to the 21 winners selected by the judges, the final votes for the fan favourite were cast during Sunday's show.
