THE TOUR
The Buckeye Buoy Tour is back for it's second season in 2010. In 2009, the Tour proved to be a winning combination of fun and competition and skiers unanimously screamed for more in 2010! Each 2010 Tour Stop will include the following:
-
A "Fun Format" Slalom tournament where skiers will be competing against each other based on handicaps.
-
All skiers will be guaranteed two rounds of slalom with the option to qualify for more.
-
Most Tour Stops will include Trick & Jump on Sunday which will also be "Fun Formats".
-
All Tour Stops will have announcers and serve lunch or provide concessions.
-
All Tour Stops will have Individual Awards for the winners.
-
All Tour Stops will include coaches in the boat for beginner skiers
-
All Tour Stops will utilize the new Ohio Novice Rule with Mini-Course
-
All Tour Stops will have online registration
SCORING
The overall tour will be scored as follows:
-
Each Tour Stop will award points to each skier based on their placement at the event similar to a collegiate tournament. 1st place will be awarded 500 points, 2nd place 490 points, 3rd place 480 points, down to 50th place and beyond which would receive 10 points. (Skiers are guaranteed at least 10 points)
-
At the end of the season, each skiers TOP 3 Tour Stops will be totaled for the final Tour Standings. You are not required to ski a certain amount of Tour Stops, but you will need at least 3 Tour Stop scores to have a chance at winning the Tour and if you ski more than 3 stops, your lowest scores will be dropped.
