Judging Criteria

A surfer must perform radical controlled maneuvers in the critical section of a wave with speed, power and flow to maximize scoring potential. Innovative/progressive surfing, a variety of repertoire and executes this criteria with maximum degree of difficulty and commitment. Longboard ‘tricks’ can be performed and will be viewed as a surfer being in control but not add to the scoring potential.

1. Each contestant is judged on his/her top 2 waves on a 1-10 scale, 10-wave maximum.

·         The total of the two top-scoring waves ridden will be used for each         competitor’s score.  

·         An interference call during a heat will reduce a rider’s second-best-scoring wave by half. A second interference call will reduce a rider’s best-scoring wave by half.

2. Types of interferences

1. Dropping in on another contestant
2. Standing up after your heat ends
3. Continuing to surf
4. Flagrant interferences at the judges’ discretion could lead to a disqualification.
5. More than 2 interferences by the same rider, in the same heat, will lead to an automatic disqualification

3. Arrive 10 minutes before heat to check in with the beach captain
