The 2008 PWA Constructors Championship Rankings

Starboard and NeilPryde sit at the top of the Constructors Championship Rankings after the Canaries leg of the PWA World Tour.

Following a month in the Canaries, the most gruelling leg of the PWA World Tour, the Constructors Championship Rankings have now been updated. The scores are based on results in Waves, Slalom and Freestyle for the 2008 PWA season thus far.

The system, similar to that seen in Formula 1 car racing, awards points calculated purely on current discipline rankings, and scores as follows:

The two highest scores for each discipline, whether they are for men or women, are added together to provide their ranking score. Due to the difference in fleet sizes you will notice the women’s points are derived slightly differently from the men’s (see below).

Men                                  Women
1st        10 points             1st        5 points
2nd        8 points              2nd       3 points
3rd        6 points               3rd        2 points
4th        5 points               4th        1 points
5th        4 points
6th        3 points
7th        2 points
8th        1 points
