class=\"paragraph_paragraph___QITb\">&#8211; Bec<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph_paragraph___QITb\">Athletes are judged on three criteria: turns, air and speed.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph_paragraph___QITb\">There are seven judges, with each having five possible votes to compare the athletes on the red and blue courses.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph_paragraph___QITb\">According to the official Winter Olympics website, the judges use voting combinations of 5-0, 4-1, 3-2, 2-3, 1-4, or 0-5.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph_paragraph___QITb\">Getting across the line first doesn&#8217;t guarantee victory, as speed only accounts for a portion of the total score.<\/p>\n<p>10m agoSat 14 Feb 2026 at
