The performance
The competitor will perform a 1minute30second run (time
starting at the first cone) over the 3 lines of slalom,
20 cones each, 50cm-80cm-120cm. The performance will
be achieved with music, which the competitors will provide
on tape or CD before his run.
All the competitors will perform a first run, then they will
perform the second one. Some extra training time can be proposed.

details here
The competitor has 2 runs, the best mark is kept. 4 different
marks are composing the mark of the run :
Technique =
how difficult the tricks presented are, how difficult
the changes between tricks
are.
Penalties are taken
into account for each cone down, and for each fall.
Style = how the
tricks achieved are, how are the changes achieved, and
a bonus is given for special tricks which
are not properly slalom, but make the run nicer such as
a block on heel wheels.
Management = variety of tricks (forward, backward, one
foot, 2 feet, eagle …), respect of the music rhythm,
changes of rhythm.
The Ranking
The global mark of each run is calculated by summing each
component (technique, style, management). Each competitor
has 2 marks (one for each run), the best mark is kept.
Then the ranking of the competition
The Qualifications to the Championship
2 rankings have to be presented : Men & Women. The
competition might have more or fewer categories, then the
2 rankings for IFSA are calculated by summing or splitting
the former categories of the competition.

account the competitors already qualified in former qualification
competition.
Among these 2 rankings, competitors are qualified
for the IFSA finale - World Championship :
Freestyle Slalom : 8 men & 5 women
Speed Slalom : 8 men & 5 women
Free Jump : 5 men & 3 women
The IFSA Cup

the former categories of the competition. The ranking takes
everyone into account.
The winner gets 20 points, the second 19 points, the third
18 points, the fourth 17 points, the fifth 16 point, ...
the 20th gets 1 point and the following competitors

any
point
for

of each competitor will be summed up for the IFSA Cup
Ranking.

they will be separated using their 3 performance marks.
