Default Ideas for improving the U System for trials


Hey Billham,

There is the link to the Internationnal Unicycle Trials Rules:
www.krisholm.com/trialsrules

*OPTION # 1...

I think you should forget about it, because the point of making
difficult obstacles is to separate the awesome riders from the good
ones. If someone clean a 6' high rail-to-rail transfer and gets the same
score as another rider who hop on a curb and drop off, it's not a trials
competition anymore, but a simple session with other unicyclists.

OPTION # 2...


That one is a possibility. But I think Kris based the scoring system on
the riding experience. In fact, it's almost exponantial, just like the
difficulty. Think of the 10 level for freestyle; it's harder to go from
level 8 to 9, than from level 2 to 3.

In case of a tie...


See Section 14. The tied-riders can choose to both attempt a long
section, and the winner is the one who clean more obstacles.

That's what they did at Toque to separate the winners: Kris Holm and
Ryan Atkins. Ryan won by totally cleaning the sections, while Kris dab
before the end.

Anyways, you should e-mail to Kris your suggestions, there's always room
for improving.

Vincent
