IMPORTANT : All of the times and events related to project 2020 will be part of this recap because even if they didn't happened during this month, they were revealed to everyone this month and didn't had any impact on the rankings until February 1st. So they are still part of what makes this month so crazy.
Over the years we had some crazy months in The Elite, February 2007, December 2017, July 2019 are the first ones i can think of. But this lonth has been so crazy i feel like a recap was needed.
So here's all the insane times that happened during this month (not including LTK/DLTK records).
February 1st : Project 2020 unhoard. With 28 World Records (11 of them Untieds when set !) (Also there was one LTK and one DLTK Untied).
And Wouter coming back to finish his 34 sweep on cradle, making him re-enter the Top 50.
