Best Tricks and Penalty
Comments about this discussion:
Started
From what Ive seen the rulebook atm states now that there are 3 tries for best tricks in finals. Testing 5 best tricks with the two best ones counting just like Skateboarding seemed to work quite well.
Judges seem to have different opinions on giving penalties when the two best tries were really similar tricks. Better explanation could solve that issue. Also some riders may not be aware of when to cancel one of their best tricks if they score lower with a penalty. Not giving a penalty for doing to really similar tricks doesnt seem to be right i feel. For maximum best trick points to trick types on to types of obstacles should be landed in my opinion.
At the moment the maximum penalty we tested out was 50% of the lower scoring tricks. So far no rider has tried to land the exact same trick twice where for me a higher penalty would even make more sense. So I feel like this could be a good spot to start.
Crowd seem to like the energy of 5 best tricks
What are your thoughts?

Agreed.
I would like to have 5 best tricks with the best two scored in the rulebook, with a variety penalty of up to 50%, just like we have had for Summer EUC 23, Winter EUC 24 & 25 and other smaller events.
