SWIVEL

SHOWCASE

Semi-finals consist of two heats with up to four skiers each. The top two scoring skiers of each heat will advance to the four-person final.
Seeding will be loosely based on prior results and then randomly selected. Heats will be published prior to the event.

Skiers MUST recognize or salute the crowd off the dock.
Each skier is allowed two passes and one trick back to shore. Creative dock starts will earn extra points.
Judging begins at the start dock (first pass) or the main dock (second pass).
Two falls are allowed with only one pickup. Skier must swim into shore after their second fall.
No points will be given for attempted tricks that result in a fall.
Skiers will be pulled behind an event sponsored boat.
Skiers can use the boat tower or low pylon.
Skiers must wear some form of floatation in order to compete.
While not required, costumes and dancing are encouraged.

DOCK START - Unique dock starts are encouraged and will enhance the overall score. Think beyond the standard swivel ski hop-dock and show the crowd something new.
CREATIVITY - The more creative your tricks and combinations are, the higher your score. Remember to add variety to your passes, such as spinning in both directions, different wraps, overheads and handle-pass combinations.
FLOW - We're looking for fluidity throughout each pass. Confidence and how well the trick is performed will also be considered.
AUTHENTICITY & STOKE - Show your stoke & unique style. Start thinking outside the box and push the envelope of what can be done on a swivel, and always remember to get the crowd engaged in your performance.
