D14.07: Official familiarisation

The skiers will be permitted to familiarise themselves with the tournament boats and jump ramp under the authority and the responsibility of the Chief Judge. Each skier participating in familiarisation shall be allotted 4 passes in slalom with a maximum of two falls, 2 passes in tricks and 2 passes in jump at the discretion of the Chief Judge based on the principle that every skier shall receive an equal opportunity for familiarisation. Familiarisation will be run under tournament conditions. No persons other than the ones allowed under tournament rules are permitted in the boat.

The schedule for familiarisation shall be run in the reverse order of team placement of the preceding World Championships, and shall be grouped by event, i.e., slalom familiarisation, audio slalom familiarisation, trick familiarisation and jump familiarisation (by jump height) will be grouped. Federation teams which did not enter the preceding World Championships will have familiarisation before the other teams in an order decided by the Chief Judge. Individual qualifiers will be assigned individual familiarisation time at times determined by the Chief Judge. The Chief Judge shall have the discretion to change the start time of an individual’s or team’s familiarisation based on extraordinary circumstances.

Running order will be advised under menu item Schedule
