hello folks...anyone in here knows how in hell points are given during a comp?

TomTom · « **Reply #1 on:** March 16, 2011, 03:09:42 AM »

Depends on the format and the contest series

but usually the points are given on this basis:

Trick selection / difficulty
Style / flow
Usage of complete course
also not doing the same run over and over helps

tangar · « **Reply #2 on:** March 16, 2011, 03:28:07 AM »

if it's the x games "amplitude"

Hercules Rockefeller · « **Reply #3 on:** March 16, 2011, 03:57:16 AM »

personality, clothing choices, politeness, overall body hygiene.

also if we?re talking about local contests: how good you know the judges.

some will judge you on "creativity"

Well where i'm from whoever catches the snake first wins, then we go to the temple of Gunda and perform rituals on small children.

extra points to people who roll away looking super serious and cool

This thread as a whole does a pretty good job of summing up an answer to your question.

grimcity · « **Reply #12 on:** March 16, 2011, 09:03:20 AM »

Why a contest? Just start judging random skaters at your leisure.

very_undude · « **Reply #13 on:** March 16, 2011, 09:45:29 AM »

grimcity · « **Reply #14 on:** March 16, 2011, 10:21:15 AM »

It's all about being cool with the judges.

Why has there been such an abunance of incredibily shitty threads this past month?

BraveUlysses · « **Reply #22 on:** March 16, 2011, 02:32:43 PM »

Considering the people that win contests sometimes I doubt style is that important.

Drew Peacock 2 · « **Reply #23 on:** March 16, 2011, 02:58:52 PM »

We run a few local comps. Everyone just starts on 100 points and then we just deduct for shit we don't like. Some dudes end up on negative, even days before the comp starts.

The ONLY 3 ways to judge a comp are how tecnical was it? How big was it? How consistent was it? Everything else is gay surfing.

I've heard of a point system where you get 1 point for a basic trick, 2 for something a little more gnar and 3 for hammers. Do a little math at the end of their runa nd you've got a score.

And whoever said the x-games is about amplitude I actually laughed to myself at my computer
