FORMAT
This year we're changing things up a little to help streamline the day's events and make it more entertaining for the spectators and more fair for the riders.

There will be qualifying and finals for each division. The qualifying round will include two back to back laps around the cable. The top 6 scores will make it to finals where you get two more laps. You will be seeded based on how you qualified.

The Outlaw division will have a different format for finals. We will select 3 or 4 obstacles on the cable as part of the comp. This will depend on how much time we have left in the day. Most likely the kicker, flatrail and a-frame...and maybe Nessy. Each rider will get one chance to hit each obstacle and throw his/her best trick. All 6 riders will hit one obstacle and then we move on to the next obstacle and run through the 6 riders again. Points are scored (0-5, 5 being highest and 0 for falling) for each obstacle and tallied in the end to determine a final winner. It's basically a "sickest trick" contest on each of the obstacles. Even if you don't win each obstacle, you can be the overall winner by being consistent on your tricks and not falling. If you fall, you will not receive any points for that particular obstacle. There will be a $50 cash prize for winning each individual obstacle and a chance that your picture may be selected to be in Wakeboarding Magazine. So, go out and throw your sickest trick!

JUDGING/SCORING
The judging is completely subjective. Your scoring criteria is based on 3 parts: how technical your tricks are, how stylish the tricks look, and how big you go.

Points will be awarded to those that make it into the finals. 10 points for first, 9 points for second, and so on - These points will be added up after ALL three rail events and an overall champion will be announced at the end of the last event. All participants will get 2 points just for entering the contest so if you don't make it to finals, you still have a chance to win the overall.

View The Score Sheet

AWARDS
Classy looking medals and other stuff. All entrants will receive a goodie bag that includes a rail Spectacular t-shirt, stickers, and other misc. stuff. Each rail Spectacular event will have a different color t-shirt.

The overall winners of each division in the series will receive wakeboarding gear and/or 3 or 6 month cable passes!

PRACTICE
There will be no practice time on the day of the competition

usually wakeskaters will go around 12:30 ( qualifying ) and 3:00 (finals)

why you coming to ride afterwards and not during it?

i've never hit the a-frame, never hit the kicker and hit the flat rail maybe twice.....advanced sounds good to me. Cool

a little heads up for anyone heading out there....they switched the flat rail with the kicker

canalskater · Guest

Logik

Of course I was joking about giving the money to John but I don't live in Fl and haven't ridden at odub in over a year. So I feel I would be wasting everyone's time trying to compete against kids that ride there all the time that's all-
