** Given the longevity and the skill of many +40 athletes (still competing), the athlete who is aged between 40 and 49, who want to compete in the Senior category, can do it.
The +40 athlete instead, wants to compete in the category reserved for Masters +40, may do it, but with specific restrictions on the selection of difficulty to declare.
This decision, is to avoid, that athletes over 40 with a very good technique, can compete in a category with athletes much lower skill from the technical point of view.
