Bibione Freestyle Contest 2008

Bibione Freestyle Contest 2008
Bibione (near Venice), Italy
April 26-27, 2008

We experimented a strange format, because of there were only five players. Each player played in couple with the other four ones, so we haved 10 open pairs team.
While a team was performing its 3 minutes routine, the other three players judged (respectively in execution, difficulty and artistic impression).

Obviusly the judjment system was not so precise, but we managed to give a good and constant show to the big audience.

Besides lots of children and adults play with us on the beautiful wood carpet, with sea, sun and wind…

Here you can find a report on the tournament (in Italian), here some photos and here a nice video of a jam.
Below the results of the contest.

Updating The Competition Manual

Since 2006, the size of the FPA Worlds has exceeded the competition capacity of the current Competition Manual. Therefore, the FPA Board has begun updating the Competition Manual to better support our larger player base. his work does not include any changes to the judging system itself, only the sections guiding tournament directors in running events and eventually, a possible refresh of what is expected from players.

Revisions are being approved on a section-by-section basis so the new guidelines can be used at FPAW this summer. The first approved section is Event Progressions. This section defines how many rounds of competition there are, how many teams in each pool, etc.

The main changes include more rounds of competition with new names. Instead of four possible rounds (Qualifier, Preliminary, Semifinal and Final), we now have five (Qualification, Preliminary, Quarterfinal, Semifinal and Final), and the Manual outlines how many teams are required for the addition of a new round of competition.

Our next step is to build FPAW competition schedules from these Event Progressions, then look at whether any other sections are in need of updates.

Here is a pdf of the new Event Progressions section.

The FPA Board is interested in translating the new Competition Manual sections to other languages. If you are interested in doing that, please contact me.
