Proposal 11: Stillstand rules [ Revision 5 ]
Committee: Track & FieldSubmitted on 2014-12-29
Status: Passed on February 05, 2015
Background
As the stillstand competition has been part of the last two Unicons, we should create a section with rules about it; see discussion.
Proposal
"old rule": The current rulebook doesn´t address the discipline "stillstand" at all.
New rule: chapter number: 2.20.14
The discipline "Stillstand" is defined in balancing as long as possible without hopping or turning the tire more than 45 degrees, all while staying on a 25 cm x 10 cm x 3 cm plank.
Rules:
1. Each participant has 2 attempts, that can be done at any time during the time window setted by the host.
The host can decide to add to each of the 2 attempts a window up to 20 seconds, in which the competitor can start the number of tries needed.
2. The starting post is placed anywhere where the participant prefers. Time starts running when the competitor lets go of the starting post. After time started running, the starting post will be taken away. Time stops at the moment when the participant rides of the board, dismounts, starts hopping or turns the tire more than 45 degrees.
3. There are no finals for the stillstand competition. The overall results will be determined by the best results per gender.
4. The competition should takes place indoors.
5. No safety gear is required.
Body
- Size of the board:
In Montreal, the board size was 10 x 25 cm and it was obvious that this size doesn´t offer any possibility to idle without riding of the board. The reason is, that for idling the cranks have to be more or less in vertical position, that means, one foot is upside and the other is downside. But for stillstand, the cranks have to be in a horizontal position. Another reason for this size is, that there are also participants whit muni wheels who require this board size.
