RUMBLE
You think you know kneeboarding? Think again.
Expect flips, spins, and gravity-defying stunts that’ll make you question the laws of physics.
Format
Semi-finals consists of two heats of up to four kneeboarders. The top two competitors from each heat will advance to a 4-person super final.
Kneeboarders will compete to showcase the best overall "2-Trick Line" (two tricks in one pass).
Each rider gets three full passes and can fall up to two times with one pickup.
Rules
Kneeboarders MUST recognize or salute the crowd off the dock.
Each kneeboarder is allowed three passes and one trick back to shore. Creative dock starts will earn extra points. A fall on a creative start will count as a fall, but can benefit scores when it comes to risk and difficulty.
Judging begins at a specified start buoy (first pass, third pass) or the main dock (second pass).
Each 2-Trick Line will be scored and contribute to the competitor’s final overall score.
Two falls are allowed with one pickup. Kneeboarder must swim into shore after their second fall.
No points will be given for attempted tricks that result in a fall.
Kneeboarders will be pulled behind an event sponsored boat.
Kneeboarders can use the boat tower or low pylon.
Kneeboarders must wear some form of floatation in order to compete.
