JUDGING A QUICK FIX WHAT WRONG WITH A SCREWY JUDGING SYSTEM
OK THERE HAS BEEN ALOT OF DIFFERENT FORMATS IN HOW TO JUDGE FLATLAND AND FLATLAND IS HARD TO JUDGE MAINLY BECAUSE IT IS AN ART FORM AND ALOT OF THE NON FLATLANDERS JUST DONT GET THAT FACT. SO HOW DO YOU JUDGE ART AS THERE ARE SO MANY ART FORMS AND SO MANY WAYS TO DO AN ART FORM AND WHICH IS BETTER THAN THE OTHER. WELL MAYBE THERE ISNT A SURE WAY TO JUDGE FLATLAND BUT JAY MIRON AND MUTT CAME UP WITH A DYNAMITE JUDGING PACKAGE UP AT THE TORONTO LA REVOLUTION COMP THIS PAST MARCH AND HERE IS WHAT THEY CAME UP WITH AND WHEN I SAY EVERYONE LOVED THIS JUDGING FORMAT, WE MEAN EVERYONE AND SEVERAL PROS HAVE BEEN ASKED IF THEY LIKED THIS FORMAT SQUARE IN THEIR FACES AND THEY SAID IT SOUNDED GOOD AND THIS WOULD MAKE THE RIDERS TRY THEIR BEST TRICKS AND MAKE THE BETTER RIDERS SHINE AND WOULD BE MORE RELAXING FOR A LESS STRESSFUL FORMAT.
QUALIFYING WOULD BE 2- 1 1/2 MINUTES RUNS WITH THE TOP 10 GOING TO FINALS
FINALS WOULD BE 1- 2 MINUTE RUNS AND THEN A 5 MINUTE BREAK AND THEN A 10 MINUTE JAM CIRCLE WHERE RIDERS WOULD TAKE TURNS COMING OUT AND DO THEIR HARDEST TRICKS AND A TOUCH OR FALL WOULD END THEIR TURN IN THE JAM CIRCLE. ALSO THEIR WOULD BE NO REPEAT OF TRICKS THEY DID IN THEIR RUNS EARLIER OR IN EARLIER JAM CIRCLE TURNS OR THEY ARE OUT OF THE CIRCLE. THIS JAM CIRCLE WILL DO TWO THINGS-YOU CAN BUST OUT THE HARDEST STUFF AND SHOW WHAT YOU HAVE AND ALSO IT WILL BE ALSO A MORE RELAXING TYPE OF COMPETITION AND MORE LIKE YOUR IN A BIG JAM CIRCLE AND RIDING WITH EACH OTHER. THE 2 MINUTE RUNS WILL COUNT FOR 50% OF YOUR SCORE AND THE JAM CIRCLE WILL COUNT FOR 50% OF YOUR SCORE SO IT WILL BE EQUALLY COUNTING IN THE FINAL STANDINGS.
WE AT F-R-O DONT KNOW IF THIS FORMAT WILL EVER BE PUT IN CONTESTS BUT JAY AND MUTT SURE HOPE SO AS IT WILL BE USED IN THE REVOLUTION COMPS THRU OUT 2001 AND IT IS AN VERY LIKE FORMAT BY FLATLANDERS WHO GO TO THESE COMPS AND HOPEFULLY IN TIME THE PEOPLE WHO PUT ON COMPS ALL AROUND THE WORLD WILL SEE THIS IS THE MOST FAIREST TO JUDGE AN ART FORM LIKE FLATLAND OR ATLEAST CLOSEST TO BEING THE MOST FAIREST AS LIKE WE HAVE SAID THERE IS NO SURE WAY TO JUDGE AN ART FORM-IS THERE????
