Divisions & Standards
Deutschland Showdown hosts a variety of divisions and levels. Whether it’s individual, buddy or triplets shifts from event to event and is always displayed clearly on the front page and inside Competition Corner.
The levels are however always the same and below you can find the standards for each level.
The success of our competitions is the focus on the beginners athlete. By this we mean anyone who has little or no competition experience and wants to recreationally experience this as a individual athlete, or where you want to test yourself in a division you have never compete before. Our competitions are also the perfect start to progress to higher level competitions.
