Pro Finals:

Like last year:
12 riders make the cut from qualifications. They will fight for the F.I.S.E title in a one to one battle “Red Bull Circle of Balance” style.

 

Seeding System :
Round 1:

Battle 1 Q6 vs Q7

Battle 2 Q5 vs Q8

Battle 4 Q3 vs Q10

Battle 5 Q2 vs Q11

Battle 6  Q1 vs Q12


Each riders has his own clock. and can use his time (2min) the way he wants.
Exemple: riders A starts his combo. His clock starts. When riders A finishes his combo, he raises his hands. his clock stops while riders B clocks starts. Rider B has to start his combo as quick as possible so he doesn’t waste his time. When rider B is done riding, he raises his hand so his clock stops and riders A clock starts. etc etc.
When there is only 10 sec left on the clock, riders can’t stop their time anymore, and they have to finish their combo before the buzzer. Any tricks not completed after the buzzer will not count.
The decision will be made by the judges with flags (black and red).
The riders who win make it to the semi final. The riders who lose is automatically out.
Same system for the semi-final but 2min 30 on the clock.

 


There will be a 3 mens final: Each rider will have two runs of 1 min and a last tricks of 30 sec.
