Judging Criteria

The Rip Curl Pro Search will have a 5 judge panel per heat.

Judging Set Up

judge_view.jpg

The ASP Head Judge of each Event is to be responsible for assuring that a minimum of 5 ASP approved international judges serve on the panel for every heat of all ASP World Tour licensed Events. These 5 taken from a pool of 7 ASP travelling judges and 1 ASP Head Judge supplied to the Event by ASP.

Split Panel Judging

In exceptional circumstances where the chances of finishing an Event are in jeopardy, split 3 man panels may be used.
If it is known ahead of time that split panels will be used due to excess entry numbers, then prior notice must be given to ASP for approval and only minimum 4 man panels will be allowed.

Scoring Scale

The wave scoring will be done from 0.1 to 10.0 (ten), broken into one-tenth increments (e.g 7.3).

A rough guide to ride scores is:

0 to 1.9 points – Poor
2.0 to 3.9 – Fair
4.0 to 5.9 – Average
6.0 to 7.9 – Good
8.0 to 10 – Excellent


Heat results are determined by the total of each surfer’s two or three highest scoring rides.
The maximum heat score possible for a surfer is 20 points.

Judging Criteria

A surfer must perform radical controlled manoeuvres in the critical  sections of a wave with Speed, Power and Flow to maximise scoring potential.

Innovative/Progressive surfing as well as variety of repertoire (manoeuvres) will be taken into account when rewarding points for waves ridden. The surfer who executes these criteria with the maximum degree of difficulty and commitment on the waves shall be rewarded with the higher scores.
