Red Bull organizers doesn't give a fuck about judges for what is countries qualifers tbh, they just put some famous people to get marketing due to probably some freestylers choosed in the future won't be those who really deserved it.I still don't know why they choose a bboy for being a judge? or even a footballer who has lack of knowledge about 'FREESTYLE' for him watch a random guy doin 1000 jugles would be a World Champ by otherside bviously if there's an B-boy like a judge the freestyler who does a freeze o dance-trick got his vote. Just wishing good luck everybody who want to compete! 
I think even cavemen know this by now. 
hahaha :B
The RBSS petition for the ball was denied for what I see :/
It hasn't been sent out to them yet & it was meant for the 2012 qualfiers/WF, it would be impossible to do it so soon.
