***CONTEST RULES AND INFO***
– All riders must wear a life vest.
– Each rider shall be allowed two passes through the wakeboard course during which time he may perform any routine he chooses.
– Judging of the routine begins when the rider enters the wakeboard course and ends when the rider exits the wakeboard course, or falls for a second time, or falls for the first time but within 100 meters of the end of the course of the 2nd run.
– Fallen rider must signal to towboat that he/she is OK.
– Riders are encouraged to perform a smooth flowing routine with a wide variety of tricks. Each maneuver should be different and executed as cleanly as possible and taken to its limit.
– The judge(s) will score the contestants in each of the following three categories:
a) Execution
This reflects the level of technical difficulty and perfection of each maneuver performed, as well as the successful completion of the entire run with a minimum of falls.
b) Intensity
This reflects the degree of performance to which each maneuver was performed in terms of how big the moves were, as well as the overall performance of the run.
c) Composition
This reflects the overall composition of the run in terms of rider’s ability to perform a variety of maneuvers in a flowing, creative sequence. This also includes the difficulty of moves performed in an overall run.
