Proposal 49: Amount of Runs and Best Trick attempts [ Revision 1 ]
Committee: 10. StreetSubmitted on 2025-06-23
Status: Review from June 23, 2025 to July 01, 2025
Background
this is a combination of the two discussions
Competition Time (about the amount of runs in prelims and finals)
Best Tricks and Penalty (about the amount and scoring of the Best Trick segment)
aiming at lowering the amount of runs in Prelims (from 2/3 to 1) and Finals (from 3 to 2)
and increasing the amount of best tricks in Finals (from 3 to 5) with two being scored instead of one.
also introducing a variety penalty for the best trick segment
Proposal
/// OLD
10B.7 Preliminaries
All competitors will be placed in an order. The order should be presented in writing as
well as announced before the competition. Each competitor will have the same number
Timed Runs (2 or 3), as chosen by the director before the competition. Riders may choose
to skip their turn in the event of an injury or any other reason. Each competitor will
complete their first run in order, before repeating the order again for each consecutive
run.
10B.8 Finals
The top 5-8 competitors will compete in a Finals round held at least 3 hours after
the preliminary rounds. To ensure riders have adequate warm up time and to increase
spectator numbers the nal round should preferably be held in the afternoon/evening.
The existing course from preliminary rounds may be used, or changes may be made to
the course. The riders will be assigned an order which should be presented in writing as
well as announced before the competition. Competitors will each complete three timed
runs. Each competitor will complete their rst run in order, before repeating the order
again for each consecutive run.
After completion of the timed runs, each competitor will have three attempts at a Best
Trick. Riders may choose to skip their turn for any reason. Best Trick score is based on
each competitor's highest scoring attempt. Judges can include preliminary round judges
as well as riders that did not make the Finals round.

10B.7 Preliminaries
All competitors will be placed in an order. The order should be presented in writing as
well as announced before the competition.
Each competitor will have one Timed Run.
10B.8 Finals
The top 5-8 competitors will compete in a Finals round held at least 3 hours after
the preliminary rounds. To ensure riders have adequate warm up time and to increase
spectator numbers the final round should preferably be held in the afternoon/evening.
The existing course from preliminary rounds may be used, or changes may be made to
the course. The riders will be assigned an order which should be presented in writing as
well as announced before the competition.
Judging panels can include preliminary round judges as well as riders that did not make the Finals round.
Timed Runs
Competitors will each complete two timed runs. Each competitor will complete their first run in order, before repeating the order
again for the second run.
Best Tricks
After completion of the timed runs, each competitor will have five attempts at two Best
Tricks. Riders may choose to skip their turn for any reason.
The two best attempts are scored.
The lower scoring of these attempts is reduced by up to 50% variety penalty for similar trick done and/or similar obstacle used as in the highest scoring attempt.
Immediately after a rider completes their last Best Trick attempt, they can choose to remove any amount or none of the attempts from scoring (before the scores are published). This can be used to avoid two tricks of low variety being scored on and therefore getting a high variety penalty.
Body
- changed the mount of runs in prelims
- changed the amount of runs in finals
- changed the amount of best tricks in finals
- added the variety penalty rule
