Who’s Judging Who and Why?
We are not on the list of people this went to but we do ride skateboards. That’s the thing… WE ride them. And the World Cup of Skateboarding exists because of the Skateboarders. Now how on Earth are we supposed to feel about the questions being asked in this letter? It is simply amazing.

Hello everyone,
In an attempt to improve the judging of vert contest, I would like to request that each of you, (if you can and are willing) send me a list of vert tricks in order of difficulty all based on your opinion.
I know that the list will be long, but if you could take some time to give input on this I believe that the end results will help to benefit the understanding that the judges will have. I hope to organize the list based on everyone’s input and then show everyone the result. Once we come up with a list that is agreed upon, we can incorporate an official degree of difficulty list.
If you would like to comment on the height of airs or amplitude, please do as they relate to difficulty. Any other feed back is also welcome.
I look forward to your list or suggestions.
Thanks in advance,
Don Bostick
