Calculated time
A percentage system is used to calculate the final time of each skier. Each skiers finishing time, is multiplied with a percentage factor, to determine a final, calculated time.
Within each category (sitting, standing, visual impairment) there are skiers with various classifications (for example B1, B2 and B3 in the visual impairment category). There are different percentage factors for each classification.[11][11][12]
| Class | Percentage (factor) | |
|---|---|---|
| Classic | Free technique | |
| Visual impairment | ||
| B1 | 87% | 85% |
| B2 | 98% | 98% |
| B3 | 100% | 100% |

| LW3 | 87-94%* | 80 – 96%* |
