Portuguese national additions · Portugal · APSL
Four further tasks appear in the Portuguese rules and are not among the eighteen WAWE obstacles. They are national, they are unnumbered here, and they do not extend the international pool to twenty-two.
The four Portuguese national additions, which are not part of the international pool
| National addition |
| The Single Pole, or Rounding Post |
| Pirouette in a Triangle |
| Dismounting and Mounting Without Assistance |

The international pool is closed: only obstacles on the international lists may be used, so that no difficulty appears at an international event which only the hosts know about. These four are Portuguese, and a national variation is never an international obstacle.
