Where the
standards change

TUF is judged rep by rep. No missed depth, no soft lockouts, no benefit of the doubt. Three athletes share one score, so the weakest rep on the floor is the one that counts.

Judging Every lane, every rep, by a briefed judge.
Movement Standards published before the floor opens.
Scoring Live leaderboard, no held results.
