Judging Criteria:
Difficulty of Maneuvers - This refers to the amount, variety, and technical ability needed to perform the maneuvers.
Use of the Ramp - Using the entire ramp width during competition will yield a higher score. Hitting all critical points (Extensions, Channel, etc.) and skating the entire ramp is what the judges are looking for.
Amplitude and Speed - Going big always helps your score. The higher the air and longer the grind, the better your run will be. You have to go fast to go big, so keep your momentum as you flow from one maneuver to the next.
Power, Style and Creativity - Your power, style and creativity determines how you look while skating. It shows your overall level of control and how comfortable you are while flowing from maneuver to maneuver. It displays your ability to approach the ramp in a unique manor.
Consistency - It’s better to stay on your board than take falls just to make one trick. This also means completing your entire run (using all your time in a timed run don’t stop with time remaining and Active and Assertive in Jam).
The point scoring system to be used is zero to one hundred broken up into increments like this:
0 – 20 BAD
20 – 30 FAIR
40 – 50 AVERAGE
60 – 70 GOOD
80 – 100 EXCELLENT
