How does an upcoming-amateur from USA qualify for racing the 2024/2025 Enduro World Cup, without traveling to Europe for qualifying points or being on a team, I haven’t seen any information on this topic at all and it really leaves me wondering if a podium at nationals or let alone winning U21 would be enough points to race?

I had just went and read just about everything on there but still feels like there’s something missing, I’m really wondering exactly how much points does one get from winning at nationals or on the podium for the ticket to race EDR. I’ve been going through some of the riders in the u21 category on roots and rain and I see no history of results from winning nationals let alone even a podium??? What am I missing
Unfortunately, it is way more complicated to qualify than it used to be, especially coming from the US. I skimmed through the rule book and it looks like pages 46 and on have the information you are looking for. The points system seems over complicated but the simple answer would be to win a open EDR race or national champs. That would give you a "Golden Ticket". Best of luck on your racing endeavors.

This article has more explanation (but no exact points mentioned too) http://www.easternstatescup.com/2023/01/13/ews-qualifier-update/
You pretty much have to buy your way into EDR these days by been on a factory team.
