Judging Criteria

  • Performance is judged on overall impression of skater in heat
  • Judges analyze the following elements when scoring:
    • Commitment, creativity, and use of entire ramp and features
    • Distance traveled through air, slides, or grinds
    • Speed, style, flow, and power
    • Lines carry weight, but innovation and difficulty are rewarded
  • Bails after a 30 second run is completed will not factor into the skater's score
