Next up is FVS stop 3\u00a0and it’s an event that deserves some serious appreciation!<\/p>\n

What is Labor Day at Drakes? #LDAD4 is 3\u00a0days filled with skateboarding that kicks off on\u00a0Friday, August 31 and doesn’t end till Sunday evening. Things start heating up on Friday as skaters start filling in throughout the day at Drakes for the vert session. On Friday the skating does not end when the sun goes down on vert ramp…it just relocates to Eastern Skate Supply for a nighttime bowl jam. Saturday is when all hell breaks out with a full day of vert fueled madness\u00a0and with the addition of the Florida Vert Series, BBQ & Brews is sure to be thriller that will be the HIGHLIGHT\u00a0of the weekend!\u00a0On Sunday things start winding down with a mellow D.I.Y. backyard crawl. The sessions progress from various spots around town to the next and skaters will be exposed to little bit of everything that Wilmington has to offer.<\/p>\n

Bob Umbel<\/i><\/b> – “LDAD is\u00a0one of my favorite skate trips of the year and I can’t wait to get back for another gathering and some Carolina hospitality. They have a great skateboard community, I love the\u00a0scene they have going!”<\/i><\/p>\n

Adam “Scizzors” Effertz<\/i><\/b> – “I attended Labor Day at Drakes the last couple of years and it is one of the best backyard vertical get togethers in the country and I’m stoked we will get to add the FVS event to it on Saturday Sept 1st. I look forward to visiting one of my former hometowns and seeing my mom as well. Life is good”\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0<\/i><\/p>\n

            • All judge’s scores will count<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

              Skater’s scores will be averaged from the judge panel.<\/p>\n

              Example:<\/p>\n

              1Judge – 89<\/p>\n

              2Judge – 91<\/p>\n

              3Judge – 92<\/p>\n

              4Judge – 91<\/p>\n

              5Judge – 90<\/p>\n

              Skater\u00a0Score \u00a0– 90.60<\/p>\n

              Judging Criteria:<\/p>\n

              Difficulty of Maneuvers –\u00a0This refers to the amount, variety, and technical ability needed to perform the maneuvers.<\/p>\n

              Use of the Ramp –\u00a0Using the entire ramp\u00a0width during competition will yield a higher score. Hitting all critical points\u00a0(Extensions, Channel, etc.) and skating the entire ramp\u00a0is what the judges are\u00a0looking for.<\/p>\n

              Amplitude and Speed –\u00a0Going big always helps your score. The higher the air and longer the grind, the better your run will be. You have to go fast to go big, so keep your momentum as you flow from one maneuver to the next.<\/p>\n

              Power, Style and Creativity –\u00a0Your power,\u00a0style and creativity determines how you look while skating. It shows your overall\u00a0level of control and how comfortable you are while flowing from maneuver to maneuver. It\u00a0displays your ability to approach the ramp\u00a0in a unique manor.<\/p>\n

              Consistency –\u00a0It\u2019s better to stay on your board than take falls\u00a0just to make one trick. This also means completing your entire run (using all your time in a timed run don\u2019t stop with time remaining and Active and Assertive\u00a0in Jam).<\/p>\n

              The point scoring system to be used is zero to one hundred broken up into increments like this:<\/p>\n

              0 \u2013 20 BAD<\/p>\n

              20 \u2013 30 FAIR<\/p>\n

              40 \u2013 50 AVERAGE<\/p>\n

              60 \u2013 70 GOOD<\/p>\n

              80 \u2013 100 EXCELLENT<\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
