 Surfing competition can take place wherever waves are ridden, from the winter surf of Hawaii to artificial indoor wave pools. In competition, surfers are judged using a subjective system that awards points based on the size of the wave ridden, the distance ridden, and the quality of the maneuvers performed by the surfer.
	The Association of Surfing Professionals (ASP), founded in 1983, functions as the international governing body of professional surfing. It replaced the International Professional Surfing tour, which was found in 1975 by American surfers. The ASP operates a professional surfing tour using a two-tier system. The ASP’s World Champion Tour (WCT) is limited to 44 qualifying professionals from around the world; its World Qualifying System (WQS), which awards qualifying points for the WCT, operates within individual countries. Surfers are scored on the ten-point scale by a panel of five personal judges appointed by the ASP and its associated national tour.
	At the WQS level surfers compete in four- person heats, while at the WCT level surfers compete against one another individually in the majority of heats. High and low scores for each surfer are thrown out and the three remaining scores are averaged for a per-wave points total. Surfers ride a limited number of waves. The number of waves actually scored ranges from three for preliminary rounds to four in the final rounds.
