This is one of the entries for the Rossi Create it Contest. Honestly, I have no idea what was up with the judging with that. No idea. This SEMIFINALIST entry literally has the K2 logo on it.

I am speechless.

I got that same stupid "good ride" e-mail after i sent them one about only posting 81 entries.what the fuck is up with rossi, so many entrants broke rules, they take for ever judging, doesn't look like they even tried, and they pick a shit load of unlegit entries. How do you have a company thats cool enough to host a comptest like this, but is also gay enough to do such a shitty, half-assed job about following through.
Alos, where can you see the designs that didn't make the top 100 cut?

that ski with the k2 on it is a stolen piece of art, on the k2 fourms a long time ago we had a design your own ski thread and a very loved member of our forums DRNK drew that ski, he just stoped posting one day, my guess is that he moved and doesnt have internet or what not, and some one stole his art work and entered a contest with it and didnt even bother to change the k2 target on it, that is bull shit who ever did that needs to get ass raped by toby from the federal prison.

"By submitting an entry, the entrant represents and warrants that the entry is his or her original artwork and that it does not contain previously published and/or copyrighted material"

"Top sheet- Max of 5 colors + white,
Base- Max of 3 colors.
The chosen colors must be from the downloadable color palette provided on website.
- the lines must be at least 0.6mm thick (or 1.5 point)."

how many of those skis violated these rules. please rossi, if you're going to make rules that hinder creativity, then judge the contest by your own rules. at a glance i counted 9 skis that had color fades, used copyrighted images or had unoriginal artwork.

dude having a faded color can be done easily with just adding a little black or white so that doesnt mean the used a whole other color

hahaha.




I would actually rather ski a k2 with a k2 logo on it.
I guess if that doesn't work out, a BC with the k2 on it would be the next best thing?
maybe a k2 with a scratch logo? I end up painting most of my skis anyways.

they updated the site with all 100 now. They also replied again to my email, this time answering my question.. sort of.

"Thanx a lot for your comments Abe,

we really appriciate your point of view.
Regarding your request
Every graphic that we preselected were with 5 colors + panton codes.
That was the key entry and thoose which didn't fill this rule was disqualify automaticly.
The 80 showns, threre's an informatic pb for the 20 left. Will be online asap
Your right on one points, it's the first ever contest like that organised and we may have some organisation problems.
Hard to be perfect the fistr time. We'll improve that in the future and are already working on the next schedule (Creat it Vol2).
So thanks agin for your feedback it will help us make it better next year. "
