(sorry for lame advertisement)
hey guys! some of you may know that FFI held a competition a few years back called the rail jam, where you make a minute long video of your best tricks/combos on a rail/rails. well i'm happy to announce the first FBHQ rail jam!

RULES:

1. video must be 45 seconds to a minute long. NO LONGER THAN 1 MINUTE.
2. you will be judged on tricks, style, landing, etc...
3. you WILL NOT be judged on the quality of your camera. you do not need a nice hd camera to enter this contest.
4. please no fancy editing, just keep it simple and only ramp/slowmo tricks you think are necessary(enders/bangers)
5. PART MUST HAVE NO MUSIC. IF IT HAS MUSIC IT WILL BE MUTED IN THE OVERALL VIDEO.


PLEASE!!! upload your video to youtube and personal message it to me so i can download it and so on, it can be unlisted or public if you want others to see it, just make sure that you pm it to me before the 15th of august.



i plan on contacting a few companies to sponsor this event so there will be prizes for 1st, 2nd, and 3rd place. other prizes will be distributed for other positions as well.
