Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to meet the initial evidentiary requirement of satisfying at least three of the ten regulatory criteria. The evidence for his awards lacked proof of the competitions' national or international recognition. His contributions to skate blade modification were not shown to be of major significance to the field as a whole, and there was insufficient evidence to establish he played a leading or critical role for a distinguished organization.
