How should good watermen be scored?
I do know executing moves in critical sections scores highly. This is understandable and recognizable. On a surfboard, this is one of the greatest moments.
In surfing comps, judges don't score the surfers effort paddling back out.
In windsurfing comps, they judge the whole performance - wave riding and wave jumping. It's exciting to watch too.
In kitesurfing, we have some wanna be surfers that recon strapless is the future....
Do we use the wind or do we pretend to surf on a board used for paddling?
more points for those using a "bridal" kite .....in fact anyone who even dares to show up at the beach with a "bridal" kite wins....
who gives a toss, ride whatever you want, whenever.
why you so caught up with what everyone else is doing?
