Scoring for the F-4
The number of teams determines the point value for each leg. To be announced the day of the event.
Example:
8 teams enter the F-4 event so therefore
there are 32 total 1 st place points available, 28 2nd place points available etc
for example:
1st place Hang Time = 8 points
2nd Place = 7 points
3rd Place = 6 points
and so on
The team that accumulates the most points at the end of all four events wins.
Good Luck!
