Cali-Battles 8

Freestyle Calisthenics World Championship
– Official Rulebook –

In this CALI-Battle, each participant will be evaluated across five distinct categories: Statics, Power Dynamics, Dynamic Tricks, Flow, and Combination. Within each category, a designated judge will assess the performance of every contestant, assigning scores according to the tables listed below. These tables represents a spectrum of difficulty for moves, ranging from S to D (S, A, B, C, D), allowing judges to precisely gauge the complexity and execution of each move. By employing this scoring system, it not only ensures a fair and thorough evaluation of participants' skills but also distinguishes the most complete athlete across all categories.

Awarded for transitions between moves.

N.B:

  • If a participant performs multiple combos in a round, the final score is determined by selecting the highest score achieved from all combos executed during that round.
  • A maximum of 4 moves per category (Statics, Dynamics, Power Dynamics) is allowed within a combination.
  • Any additional moves beyond the 4 allowed per category will not be counted towards the score.
  • To achieve the maximum of 12 moves, an athlete must perform 4 moves from each of the three categories.

Important: Strict Form Evaluation

For all judging categories, especially Statics, Dynamics, and Power Dynamics, the form and execution of every move are strictly evaluated by the corresponding judge. Bad execution of a move will result in a deduction of points or the move not being counted at all.
