How many moves are counted in the freestyle? And does that mean we only get one run?

I was unsure about that myself Ross.. I THINK its just once you flush out the next person goes in so we arent wasting time and its continuous rotation for 8 mins?

I emailed Ronan about it and he hasnt replied yet :/

30 second penalty for touching a gate in slalom seems a bit extreme, should be more like 3 seconds?

Maybe we could ask to get moved earlier for slalom so that it definitely won't clash with Polo?

I mean is it our best 6 moves, or just our total score after the time.

Ailbhe, it seems to say you can only drop onto it, it reads to me as one 2 minute run with no second chance, so if you fall off of it immediately you get nothing. Which is awful...

We're last though! So hopefully they'll have it sorted out by then

It could easily be like that because they are doing weird things in slalom too with the penalties.

It looks like you get one 2 minute ride, and after you drop off the next person goes. Which means we won't see any entry moves anyway
