Hey Dudes,

So i've been in touch with Oliver from BRR who was cool enough to send me a whole grip of awesome shit from Blackriver and instead of being a greedy bastard and keeping it all to myself i've decided to do a few little contests and give some stuff away. So here it goes.

FIRST CONTEST: Create a fingerboarding video using GCH's new single "Stereo Hearts", the video must be at least 1 minute long. I'll be judging along with the guys in the band. The winner of this contest gets a Blackriver Pocket Winkler Halfpipe, This may or may not be signed by everyone in the band. we will be judging on skill as well as overall creativity so even if your not a total shredder but can edit an awesome video you still have a shot.

SECOND CONTEST: Choose any song from the Eagleegg album "Dayglow" and create an outdoor video that is at least a minute long. You can download the entire Eagleegg album at:http://www.soundcloud.com/eagleegg I'll be judging this one myself on skill and creativity, i'm looking to use some of these videos to promote my album so you also have to be cool with that. Winner of this gets his choice of either a set of blue Timo Lieben Winkler Wheels BRR Edition or a blue blackriver graphic Berlinwood Deck.

Contest ends August 22n'd all videos must be posted in this thread and must meet the predefined requirements. Let me know if anyone has any questions.

AMAZING idea.
^nuff said

Also if anyone posts elsewhere like FFI or other fingerboard forums if you could post this over there as well that would be incredible. Also Kerry if there is anychance you'd throw something up on Unite that would be huge, i'm looking to get as many entries as possible.

Woah dude thanks for not being greedy lol

Great idea!

did you get the stuff for free? :O great idea!

sick man, love this!

oooh i wanna see the entries of this
i love that song

This sounds awesome. Ill try to enter the first contest.

i'd love to enter. but i dont think i can film 2 mins of footy in 5 day.




good luck to all who make the effort though!

Good Luck with the contest- sounds really sick I wish I could enter, but I don't think I'll have time as schools starts for me tomorrow and I'll be busy :/

this is an interesting idea, but I don't think its that well planned out.. that long a clip and you're giving people until monday? IMO its not fully fair to get sick prizes and barely give people the chance to win them.

And do you know the guys from GCH or something, if they'll be judging it?

Noted. I changed it to only 1 minute so hopefully that will make it easier for people though I really don't think its all that tough to shoot 2 minutes worth the footage but I suppose with people having school and such maybe it is. Anyhow i'm not gonna change the due date but I did make it shorter hopefully that will make a difference. I leave for another small tour and some one offs in a few days so I need to make sure i'm gonna be around to ship the prizes.

not a bump right?

I'm editing mine as we speak

Yeah, I know, it's weird that I made a fingerboarding video for once. haha
But I had a really good sesh filming this, I was fbing for like an hour or two. And it was really fun filming this, so expect more videos soon, I hope.
Sorry about the lack of obstacles, that's kinda much all I really have to use, and my rail was getting really un-smooth again, so I couldn't do all the tricks I wanted to on it.

looks great guys I will be judging these tommorow so you still have till the end of the day today to enter both contests.

Whats the point of not choosing our own songs? is this some kind of promotion for gym class heroes?

Its a contest

FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU I wish I had a few more days
I seriously hope steven wins because Billy already has a winkler pocket and steven has like no ramps but still both parts were sick

how do i enter the contests?
can u show me some info?
and sick vids

You could extend the date :roll:

I'm not going to to extend the date. That would be unfair to the other people who got their shit together and entered videos in the allotted amount of time.

However one thing I did not factor in is the European time difference so I will not give my final judgement until the end of the day today (tuesday the 22nd) so anyone can still submit before the end of the day today.
