Everything happens so fast in both events .... When you first start out, it's just a blur. Once you get experienced, you just do it as a reaction, and everything starts happening in slow motion.

Riding judge is a matter of opinion. It's like gymnastics. In gymnastics, a girl can't get a 6.0 if the difficulty of all your tricks only add up to 3.0.

We judge off those criteria. It's not like we sit there with an open mind. We use those tools to judge so we can explain why one rider was better than the other.
