Scoring
Scoring will be based on your team’s ability to fly together. Factors such as proximity, smoothness, and timing (performing moves at the same time) will be MORE important than the number of points turned in each round. At the completion of the 3 Spaceland Freefly League meets, overall winners will be determined not only by their cumulative points, but also on their total improvement over the 3 meets. This scoring is designed to help competitors focus on improving their freefly skills and doing things smoothly and properly to better develop good fundamentals.
Your team must must turn in video of all 3 rounds (2 compulsories, 1 free round) in at least 2 meets to be considered as an overall winner.
