Agreed.
Darius was on point with pro riders getting in for free too. Those riders are the ones who are bringing in the crowd. They should get paid, not the other way around.

Re: STUNTWARS CONSTRUCTIVE INPUT (Post Here)
Finally we are getting some good, constructive ideas about how to make stuntwars better...
I like the site and vendor map idea
Free practice, or a one time fee for the week's practice
a large covered area with picnic tables
Pro and Am classes
If you are in team event, you don't have to pay for ind. freestyle.

payouts should go deeper into the field. 1st-4th is garbage when there is TONS of talent there that travel from far away. It sucks when someone is only 50-100 feet short of 1st in long stoppie and they get nothing!!!
Talent is deep = payouts should go deep... i say 8th place would be nice to see for THIS year... farther in the years after.
Free practice and entry into the track for competing riders is a must too!
set a schedule, stick to it, be organized, get the thing done on time/before dark!!!
Scoring for ind. freestyle should be done just like it was done at Starboyz Stuntfest... a judge for each category scoring 1-10 in that category only!!! Best/most fair judging i have seen to date!!!
I probably wont be able to make it but i'd like to see it get better for those that do make the sacrafices and travel every year!!!

But seriously, if you cam 100 feet from the 4th place guy, I dont think you deserve a piece of the pie. maybe a participation plaque if you need to be recognized, but you should go home and practice harder for next year...
imaging if the NBA, NFL, MLB and all other sports organizations gave out rings for 1-8th place?

AMA motocross pays the whole field... 40 positions... at every race... 28 times a year (moto and supercross)... much bigger payouts too

Tough to compare those with stuntriding when the average pay for riders is usually negative.
I agree with John on this.

I think most people know if they're Pro or Am.
As for stuntwars...make it invite only for pro (like XDL) and there will be no confusion.

Hard to say since there is no sanctioning body for stuntriding yet.
Usually its up to the event co-ordinator to invite who he wants to compete in the "pro" class IF it's going to be limited.
For now either everyone in one class or run an "Am" class WITH NO PAYOUTS so that there are no sandbaggers just trying to make a buck.
