How many waves are scored?
All surfers’ scores are the total of their two highest-scored waves. This does not change regardless of which ASP tour they are competing on. By scoring surfers on only two waves (formerly it was three), the level of performance is pushed as surfers attempt for bigger scores. In all ASP World Qualifying Series (WQS) heats and finals and ASP World Tour heats, the maximum number of waves scored is 15.
