Just curious and interested on how others see the logic associated in some of the divisions and skill levels allowed. All the divisions seem to be logical except the Masters and Veterans. The Masters appears to be like an intermediate class for older riders and Veterans a novice class for older still. I don't really see the need for those two divisions if you are limited on the tricks allowed. Men's intermediate is for 13 and over and Masters is a division for 30 and over but limited to intermediate tricks. Men's novice is for 13 and over and seems to be the same like Veterans for 40+. If they have a division based on age, then why do they limit the tricks allowed? I qualify to ride the Veterans division, but since I can do inverts and spins I have to ride in the Advanced division against guys less than half my age. I met a lot of great riders and friends, but it does surprise people when I hang with, and am older than some of the parents of the guys I compete with. It is not a bad thing, but why have those division based on age if I can't ride against my age group? Just curious of others thoughts and opinions.
