Contestants will be randomly drawn into the 24 available positions. If ties result in more than 24 contestants qualified to advance, the tie will be broken by the single highest score in a go-round. If still tied, all will be accepted. The top 4 from each of the progressives performances will advance to the Finals on Sunday, January 23 (20th performance). If ties in a progressive performance result in more than 4 contestants qualified to advance, the contestant ranked highest in the average at that point will advance.

If there are less than 12 total qualified rides in the three progressive performances, the remaining positions in the Finals (not to exceed 12) will be filled by the contestant with the highest ranking in the average after the first two go-rounds.

The first two go-rounds and the finals will pay 8 places in accordance with the rulebook. The three progressive performances will each pay 4 places. If there are less than 4 qualified rides or times in a progressive performance, the remaining places will be paid based on rankings in the average after the first two go-rounds. If there are less than 8 qualified rides or times in the finals, the remaining places will be paid based on the highest scores or fastest times in the progressive performances. If there are still less than 8 contestants who did not have a qualified score or time in either the finals or a progressive performance, the remaining places will be paid based on the highest ranking in the average after the first two go-rounds.
