Auditions: During each Roller Skate Detroit Skate Your Style Audition, a qualified Judging Panel chosen by Sponsor in its sole discretion will judge each round of the dance competition and select the top dancer from among the eligible entries. The Judging Panel will base its decisions on the following equally weighted criteria: rhythm, musicality, movement, technicality, creativity, story, expression and charisma (the “Criteria”). The entries with the highest scores based on the Criteria, in the Judging Panel’s sole discretion, will be selected as the potential winners. The potential winners will be announced on at the close of each Audition. The top two (2) scoring competitors from each Audition will advance to their respective City Qualifier Regional Qualifier.
City Qualifier and Regional Qualifier Events: During each Regional Qualifier Event, the competitors will compete in a roller skate battle (the “Battle”) against another roller skater selected at random in Sponsor’s sole discretion. Each Battle is assigned a spot on the Event’s Battle Bracket. The in-person audience will decide the winner of each Battle by judging each Battle based on the Criteria and select the top roller skater in each Battle to advance to the next position on the Battle Bracket. In the event of a tie, the tied competitors will participate in an additional Battle that will be judged by the in-person audience based on the Criteria. If the competitors are still tied following the initial tie-breaker, the tied competitors will continue to compete in Battles indefinitely until a winner is selected.
