[Faux] Sectors?

Yep, and with winged Trigs.

Competition Equipment & Measuring
This year, we will be using winged trigs along with a sector-based measuring system. The measuring process works as follows:

  • The judge will place the tape at the back side of the trig, starting at the single white mark (as shown).

  • The tape will then be pulled taut to the closest mark on the ground made by the implement.

  • As long as the tape makes contact with the white line on the far side of the trig, the throw will be considered valid.
