MEMO: WSA Judging Criteria for Event# 3 Pismo Beach, October 11-12.
The judging criteria for this weekends event is as follows:
"Good Morning Athletes -
This weekend looks like there will be 2-3+ surf both days. There will be plenty of opportunities out there for both Saturday and Sunday.
This weekend we will be looking for the surfers who can execute quality maneuvers in the pockets of energy and critical sections. Those surfers that can combine these quality moments with speed, power, flow, and variety of maneuvers, will receive the higher scores.
Please remember for maneuvers to be deemed complete, the surfer must show control and ride out in front of the white water. Any loss of control will hinder scoring. Also, please be mindful of crushing down sections on other competitors as it may cause an interference.
Longboard criteria:
The Surfer must perform controlled maneuvers in the critical section of the wave utilizing the entire board and wave using traditional longboard surfing. The surfer who performs this to the highest degree of difficulty with the most style flow, and grace will receive the highest score for a ride. Key elements for judges to consider: Nose riding in the critical section of the wave, variety of maneuvers, speed and power, control, commitment, control and foot work!
Push-In and Adaptive Divisions criteria - please view page 5 of the WSA Rulebook “Fundamental Surfing"
