Olympic Snowboarding Scoring

Summary


HALFPIPE -- Finalists are given scores by five judges, all grading their overall impression of the performance, looking for elements such as the smoothness of the run, the height of the jumps and the difficulty of the tricks. They each award scores up to 10, which means a total of 50 is the best possible. The riders get two runs each, and the better score from two runs counts.

SNOWBOARDCROSS -- 32 riders are seeded based on qualifying times they post during individual runs at the beginning of the day. Then, they hold elimination races in four-person groups, with the best seeds getting to choose their starting position -- inside, outside, or one of the two middle spots -- for each race. They knock two out of each race until only four are left, and the final race determines gold, silver and bronze.
