Hi Skaters & Followers,
We thank you for your patience & understanding, as at very late notice, we brought together the much awaited ASIANIC INLINE CUP.
Now for some clarification.
With two events held already the 9 stage programme will continue next on the 24th May with the WIC event in Incheon., followed by the Xiajing Chinese AIC event, on the 29 th May. (Note changed to Friday for main part of Festival, 1 hour from Shanghai Airport, please advise, if you need met, race after 2 pm on Friday, track races 30th )
In its Initial year 2009 we could not define the overall criteria, till we could finally confirm the number of events, which has now been settled.
1/ With Incheon & Suzhou WIC events doubling as AIC events, to encourage AIC skaters to step up to a higher level. In these events the top 50 placegetters will earn points, as per normal WIC top class criteria from 125 points down as per the winner. ( As Revised Begg 2007 )
2/ For the overall Points & AIC winner, only 1 of the 2 Asian WIC events count for AIC points,
with the worst performance discarded from the overall.
3/ For the 7 AIC races, the top 20 earn overall points, as per WIC class 1 (as Revised Begg 2007), with 60 points for the winner.
4/ For the 7 AIC events, the best 5 performances of the 7 count for the overall title, with the 2 lowest discarded.
5/All Bonus points earned from 500 (Approx ) meter pre Marathon AIC sprints will remain, in the points for overall honours.
6/ Same as all sprint Prime & Hill prime bonus points, they will remain in the overll points, no matter if scored in a discarded event or not.
7/ Those skaters risking losing in the final result for the race, by contesting pre race sprint series & livening up the events by contesting sprint primes & hill primes, deserve rewarding.
8/ In summary 6 of the 9 events count for the overall title, 1 of the 2 Asian WIC races & 5 of the 7 ASIANIC INLINE CUP races.
