We might be stuck with the ISSA rules to make sure we get international rankings.

See

http://www.slalomskateboarder.com/Media/2014-ISSA-Rules.pdf

Rule 7.2: a DQ = 999.

Rule:7.3

During head - to - head competition:

1.The faster run (Resultant Time) of each racer is compared to break the tie.

2.The racer with the lowest cone count shall be the winner of the tie - breaker.

3.The racer with the higher placement in the qualifying round shall be declared the winner of the head - to - head round.

ASRA Admin Comment by Scotty Taylor on March 16, 2017 at 15:07: So I made manual adjustments to rank the final placings based on the time from the round where you got eliminated. I'd like to have a discussion on Facebook about this so will post there for the main discussion. I'm proposing that we change the spreadsheet to rank this way so that placings are calculated by your final race...

Eliminated in Quarter:
PC 39.073
Neil 39.691
Ross 40.151
Chris 43.23

Eliminated in Round 5:
Dan 41.301
Scotty 42.952
Phil 43.56
Andy 46.346
George 46.387
Evan 48.655
Mark 53.705
Bernie 56.38

Very hotly contested in the top 4 with less than a second separating 1st and 4th....

Some spectacular slams, thankfully nothing more than a little lost skin.
