YOUTH SURFSKATE LEAGUE 2027

AB&C Surf & Skate School | English Discussion Draft

Scoring guide

THREE numbers to understand:

  1. Performance Score
  2. Event League Points, and
  3. The latest-three-event total.

Performance Score (0-10) + Podium Bonus = Event League Points

01 – How each event earns points

Speed, Trick, Flow and the full Competition use their own judging criteria. Each result is converted to a common 0-10 performance score before adding the podium bonus. The conversion methods are still to be defined.

Event Placing
Podium Bonus
Example: Performance Score 6.0
1st
+1.5
7.5 league points
2nd
+1.0
7.0 league points
3rd
+0.5
6.5 league points
4th onwards
+0
6.0 league points

02 – One record, two uses

Decision
Which Numbers Are Used?
Season Standings
Accumulated league points. Award eligibility and points after promotion are addressed in the League System guide.
Level Promotion
The latest 3 eligible events: total league points AND the required performance scores.

Check ability thresholds using performance scores only.
Example: 5.0 performance + 1.5 bonus = 6.5 league points. The rider has NOT reached a 5.5 performance threshold.

How Promotion Works?

03 – Meet both requirements

Promotion
Latest 3 Total
Performance Requirement
Rookie to Explorer
15+ Points
All 3 scores at least 3.0
Explorer to Intermediate
19+ Points
At least 2 scores at least 5.5
Intermediate to Advanced
22+ points
At least 2 scores at least 7.0

The window moves forward: After event 4, check events 2, 3 and 4 for promotion.
Event 1 stays in the season record.
Eligible-event and missed-event rules are still to be defined.

04 – Example: an Explorer rider moves up

Events
Performance
Bonus
League Points
2026 Championship
5.5
+0.5
6.0
Speed

6.2
Land That Trick
6.0
+1.0
7.0

Points: 6.0 + 6.2 + 7.0 = 19.2, meeting the 19-point threshold.
Consistency: All 3 performances reach 5.5; at least 2 are required.
Result: The rider meets the draft promotion criteria.

05 – Does one low score change the level?

No. Two consecutive events below the current-level minimum trigger a Level Review. Review the performances and reasons before deciding whether placement one level lower is appropriate.

Performance minimums:
- Rookie 3.0
- Explorer 4.0
- Intermediate 5.5
- Advanced 7.0
These checks exclude podium bonuses.
