Air Scales
To calculate the air score for a given trick, count the frames, then use the column that applies to the trick based on the chart above.
Note: Combos are an average of frames for each component. So if a rider does a 42 to 38 frame roll to roll combo, their air frames would be 40.

Weightings
For the Free ride event, the score for any given trick is calculated based upon the air, technical, and style components.
The weighting between air, technical, and style varies based on the division. In the amateur division, technical is more important than air, and weighted accordingly. The higher the division, the more heavily air is weighted. The difference between the Advanced Technical and Advanced Air divisions is simply that air is weighted more in the Advanced Air division.

To calculate the score for a given trick, multiply the air score times the air weighting for the division, multiply the technical score for the trick times the technical weighting for the division, and multiply the style score time the style weighting for the division. Add these three numbers together to get the total score for the trick.
Examples:
- An amateur rider gets 30 frames of air on a Lazy Boy Floater, with a style score of 6. The air score is calculated as a 3 based on the above tables (a Floater uses Air Scale G). The technical score is 4.5. So, the score for this trick is (3 * .2) + (4.5 * .4) + (6 * .15) = .6 + 1.8 + .9 = 3.3
- An Advanced Air rider does the same trick with the same air and style and scores 1 for air (using the D Air Scale), so the score for the trick is (1 * .4) + (4.5 * .3) + (6 * .15) = .4 + 1.35 + .9 = 2.65.
- An Advanced Technical rider does a 36 frame hand-to-hand 360 with a style score of 8. Using the F scale the air score is a 5. So, the trick is scored (5 * .3) + (28 * .3) + (8 * .15) = 1.5 + 8.4 + 1.2 = 11.1
