Corn Cup Slopestyle
March 27, 2021

This is the final freestyle competition of the year! Springtime is the best time for riding parks. Slushy snow, the parks are fully built, riders have dialed in their tricks, and the weather even cooperates...sometimes. Slopestyle events provide the best opportunity for skiers and snowboarders to throw down their best tricks on full runs through the Fishbowl Terrain Park using as many jumps and rail features as possible.

JUDGING CRITERIA
We provide up to four judges for these competitions, each with years of terrain park riding and work experience. We base our scores on an overall impression of a combination of factors:
Degree of difficulty - How hard was that trick? Example - a backside 360 on a snowboard is not as difficult as a switch backside 360.
Amplitude - How big did they go? Example - more airtime is cooler. Duh.
Execution - Was it smooth? Did they ride away cleanly, no hands down, tight rotations, etc. Example - A smooth and clean 540 will most definitely outscore a wack 720.
Variety - Multiple types of tricks. Example - the same rail slide the whole way down will not score as high as a run that approaches jibs differently with a variety of tricks.
Style - ...was it kinda rad?
Point System - Each Slopestyle judge judges their area of the park to a total of 10 points. 4 judges would have a maximum score of 40. Each division would be judged across the same point scale. Segments - For the Slopestyle the park will be divided into multiple segments. No one person can see every landing and takeoff of each park feature for each competitor. That is why we divide the park equally (typically two on the jumps, and two in the lower garden) in an effort to equally judge all types of terrain park riding.
