OWOOT stands for "One wheel on/over track", and is a rule for certain competitions. The rule means that you have to have at least one wheel on or over the track at all times. This means you cannot leave the road and make shortcuts, which makes for a totally different, cleaner and more perfectionistic races. The expression and the rule were first developed by Ruepel and Pershing II who made the ISA competition with this rule in 2002.
There is one general exception to the OWOOT rule: the grass square in the middle of a jump. Additionaly, there are a few variations on how the OWOOT rule gets implemented in competitions. The variants may be classified in "strict" or "free" OWOOT rules.
