hard to call it a fix or politics given the variety of judges.

Freestyle is going to be intense this year
21 Amateurs
25-30 Pros
Freestyle tech yesterday had almost 40 skis, probably 10 Japanese riders here, 1 of them is a woman.
Lee Stone is on a mission with his new hull, doing combos so long the fuel lines run dry. Roks been going big with his combos too. This will definitely be a year worth watching!

Curious, H, and not calling you out on this or anything, but if those "opinions" the judges have are the "end-all-be-all" decisions that add up to the final scores, then to what amount of relevancy is it as far as making a difference?

And sooooo subjective.

Imagine if you and I were in a booth, side by side, judging freestyle comp. Only one of us would walk away alive and we are friends! lol

The whole scoring thing is way to subjective and there really is not a better way to do it than wha they do.

They're the judges and their scores are what determine the placing. Easy enough?

May 14, 2012:

Fresh off the press are Aquabike rule changes for 2012.
When it comes to freestyle judging the changes are quite radical and they appear to be geared toward curbing potential judges' bias and making it easier for competitors to weigh the importance of each part of their routine.
Before we look at the details it is worth noting that Aquabike already has a 3-minute routine rule, as opposed to the more classic 2-minute.
XJETSKI.com has simplified some of the language from its original form, so in a nut shell, the main changes are as follows:
1. Minimum of 5 judges.
2. From a total of 100 points:
- 1 point per executed trick, for a maximum of 35 points

- Variety of tricks:
Aerials: 5 points for every different trick
On water: 2 points for every different trick
For a maximum of 35 points

- Maximum 30 points will be given by the judges for the quality of execution, innovation and presentation.
3. The highest and the lowest score will be automatically eliminated, effectively eliminating two judges' scores and thus eliminating potential favorable/unfavorable treatment.

4. In case a trick is not finished, or if rider falls into the water not holding his jetski he will get 0 points for that trick.
5. The judges may unanimously decide to allocate 10 extra points to the freestyler that performs a particularly spectacular or new routine.

Where are the Fist Pumping points located? Are there any bonus points for being arrogant enough to wear a red spandex shirt with a #1 on it?
