If you have any tips please feel free to give them.
If you're interested, why not create a new topic here in the Virtual Freestyle forum where people can discuss methods of rating the competition.
I'm sure everyone has their own methods so it will be nice to pick up some hints and tips, whether you're a novice or expert.
Going back to your original comment - the solution is simple, if you can't make out what's going on then it don't get any points for it. Can't be any farer than that can you?
