"Flow (20% of score):
Score is given for cleanliness and style of rider during the battle/preliminary."
Let's define what cleanliness means and get rid of style unless someone can clearly define what it means!
Comment
Style is hard to define because it kinda reflects the personality of the riding of a rider so for everyone it can be quite different what they like
Comment
I would even go the other direction and get rid of the name 'flow' in favor of 'style', because what I understand by flow is included in style, but not the other way around.
The definition of style is definitely harder then.
A good style might be a coherent or unique style of riding. So riders who found their look of riding will benefit more than riders who are still kind of trying out what works for them.

I am not even sure whether we should give any points for this as it's so subjective what is "good style". What is a coherent riding style? Why should a rider get punished for changing how they ride? Or are you hinting at originality here?
