EVENT SOCIAL DISTANCING PROTOCOL

Due to a recent rise in cases, The WWA is implementing additional measures & social distancing guidelines effective at all WWA produced events in an effort to minimize the spread of COVID-19 in our communities.  Events are only possible if we all maintain the federal, CDC, state and local guidelines. We appreciate everyone doing their part so our events are able to operate and do not get shut down.

 PARTICIPANT PARKING/VIEWING

In accordance with the event social distancing protocol, spectators will only be able to view the event from the area outlined on the map below. OWC will be roping off areas on the deck and dock. There will be no spectating from the start dock. Only the current heat and heat that is to follow will be allowed in the dock area.

The run starts when the rider leaves the dock and goes until the rider passes the Pool/Rooftop Transfer rail section a second time or on the rider's second fall (one pick up).

The 3/4 marker is the kickers on the second lap. After a rider has passed the kickers a second time, they will not receive another pick up, regardless of falls used.

If you drag, tumble up (your hips behind you) your run is over and you risk being disqualified from the entire event. 

Hot dog handles are caused by the rider, if you fall your run is over, if you do not fall, you have one lap to reset handle and pickup your run after the hot dog handle occurred.

Scores are predetermined by placement! Meaning the points rewarded for each placement are standardized, regardless of gap between runs.

If you have an equipment malfunction, please raise hand immediately and return to the starting dock.

Judges score riders and rank from first to last, no ties in area so if riders do the same trick, judges must delineate by amplitude, grabs, style and so forth.

If you drag, tumble up (your hips are behind you) your run is over and you risk being disqualified from the entire event.

Tricks after the clock are not allowed, riders must be on the features to count trick. 

NO outside assistance getting back to the dock, however if a rider removes their board from the lake, they are allowed to change boards in the middle of heat.

 

UNSPORTSMANLIKE CONDUCT

Unsportsmanlike Conduct - Any Athlete or official whose conduct is deemed unsportsmanlike, or who may cause discredit to the WWA, sponsors, or that person's home country federation, either on or off the contest site during the period of time of the contest may be fined and/or disqualified, as determined by the WWA Chief Judge.  Unsportsmanlike conduct includes, but is not limited to: use of vulgar language in public, public tantrums, not riding to the fullest potential, failure to attend designated functions or events, consuming alcoholic beverages during competition, competing under false pretenses, such as not having a WWA membership, concealing significant injuries or health problems. A rider disqualified in this manner would forfeit prize money for that contest and all points. This paragraph shall not be construed to deny or limit any individual's legal rights. All fines shall be paid to the World Wake Association. Failure to do so will result in exclusion from any future contests until fine is paid.

There will be ZERO tolerance of unsportsmanlike conduct towards any of the event staff.
