The official summer edit contest!!!

As summer approaches, we all, as skiers, plunge deep into depression and begin searching for anyway to fill our cravings to ski. Alas, we created this competition to help our fellow Newschoolers cope with this depression and hopefully inspire some to keep skiing over the warm months. So here’s the deal...

There’s Gonna Be Three Sections:

Best Backyard Edit:
This encompasses anything done in your backyard, whether it be step-on, astro-turf or ice rink snow; and if you live in a city the handrails in that city DO NOT count as your backyard.

Best Urban Edit:
Lets take it to the streets! Handrails, Bomb-drops, ledges, and whatever else are all in play here.

Best Camp Edit:
If your lucky enough to be heading out to camp this summer make sure to bring your camera. These edits have to be shot on location at a camp (show banners or other evidence) or in the public parks on the glaciers.

ALL FOOTAGE MUST BE FROM THE SUMMER!!!

Rules Rules Rules:
- All edits must be at least 1 minute long.
- Entries for all three competitions are due by August 1st.
- Multiple people or “crews” can be in each video (This Is Not A Requirement.)

Judging:
The judges are Mr.Bishop, Bons, joshbyrant, Eastcoastjibber, eastAR5, Sean., Cosco., and Genome. The reason we aren’t allowing all of Newschoolers to vote is because the voting would get skewed because of people playing favorites.

Sponsors:
LIBERTY SKIS ( www.libertyskis.com ), NEWSCHOOLERS.COM, DEJECT CLOTHING ( www.dejectclothing.com ), EC HEADWEAR (www.echeadwear.com ), and JIBIJ PRO SHOP ( www.jibij.com ).

WE LOOK FORWARD TO SEEING WHAT YOU COME UP WITH!!!

Words by Sam Giber and Sean Wilcox.

Whoever sends the edit in will receive the prizes, and it is up to them to give it out to the other people in the edit.

I already said it, you'll send it to me. And then I will post all of the edits in the cult with judges only. And then after we establish the winners, I'll make a thread with links to all of the edits and announce the winners.

Haha you want company's to throw out pairs of skis for a contest like this? It's a contest for fun, and if you don't like the prizes then don't enter it.

And also, WATER CAMPS DO NOT COUNT UNDER THE CAMPS EDIT, because it would be too hard to judge against the real camps edits.

No, because it would be too hard to judge urban and backyard vs. just urban or just backyard.

And after the judges establish who the winners are, I'm going to make a thread with links to all of the edits and announce the winners.

trampolineing is to alike to have a division in this dude.... thinka bou tit you can only really do so many things on a trampoline it would be everyone doing similar things and they would all be boring as fuck to watch srry but i disagree with that idea

i vote that there should be a random summer activity section of the contest, like wakeboarding or trampoline or skating, but it is focused more on the edit and not on the skill. i know a few of the judges are in the movie maker cult so they know their shiiit about film and such. just an idea, whos with me?

You'll have to host it on a site, such as Putfile.com, and then you PM me the link.

i think the its up to the judges but it will end up being a combination of all 3, it seems that the best skiers tend to have the best edits anyways

It is going to be a combination of everything, skills, editing, and just overall vibe of the edit.

The edits have to be atleast 1 minute, and I can't see them going over 5 minutes. Like 2-3 minutes is best probably.
