Competitors should make some effort to finish with all of their equipment. If a competitor leaves easily retrieved equipment in the venue, it is up to the judges to decide if the equipment was easy to get and whether it will result in any score deduction. Instates a 2-point rule See 2. All categories may not exceed a preceding category by more than 2 points. See Line Choice and 2.
Evaluation Be careful to evaluate each category separately.
Try not to get an overall impression of the run and then score the categories. Even though the categories are related, they describe something different about the competitors last run. When the athlete picks up their cards after their run, they want to know exactly what to improve for the next run. Scale Use the whole scale from 1-10. Our job as judges is to separate a lot of skiers.
