Rules
QUALIFYING ROUND
Both series start with a 3-minute qualifying round, where the tricksters do their own combo in turn. Based on the qualifying round, the judges rank all the battlers in order, based on which the tournament table is formed.
BATTLE TOURNAMENT
At the beginning of the battle, the starter of the battle is drawn with the game Rock-Paper-Scissors. The winner decides who starts.
The beginning trickster is the first to do a series of moves or a trick, to which the other trickster has 20 seconds to respond with his own combo / single trick.
This continues until both have done three sets, after which the judges vote for the winner.
In the event of a tie, both battlers are given one more combo, after which the judges vote again. In the next round, the judges cannot vote for a tie.
Evaluation criteria
EVALUATION CRITERIA
In knitting, each movement is not graded with a point system. Instead, the judges evaluate the sets of moves with the following criteria:
1. Kicks (kicking technique, cleanliness, power, showmanship)
2. Acrobatics (Volts and twists)
3. Style & Creativity (Fluidity of combos, using different moves, landings, surprise)
4. Performance (Does the battler look at the floor or at another contestant, judges & audience. How good a show does the battler put on.)
5. Degree of difficulty (Number of twists, variations and technical transitions, i.e. how to move from one trick to another)
