The top seven countries at the 2010 Pan American Championship in Santiago, Chile + Mexico can send a maximum of 4 athletes (up to 3 for any gender) + one wakeboard athlete. All other countries can enter a maximum of 2 athletes (1 male and 1 female) and 1 wakeboard athlete. The maximum quota is 40 male, 32 female and 8 wakeboard (male only) athletes (80 total). The wakeboard category is full, so countries not qualified can only send water skiers, if they meet the minimum requirements.[1]
