Replying to The first Orage contest
Am I the only one who thinks the first contest is bullshit? I mean, the idea is good, to make a summer edit, but it has to be from the camps? What about people in the Southern hemisphere? What about people doing summer skiing in Europe? They have just as good if not better parks there in my experience, and what about the kids on the EC? As if camp wasn't expensive enough, airfare from the EC is infinitely more expensive than the West.
The contest is aimed at probably less than 10% of the NS population for the 2 camps, which cost thousands of dollars to go to, so the majority of the kids there don't even need the gear.
I think they should re-structure the contest so that it IS just a summer edit, whether it be EC summer ramps, a park people built on a patch of snow in the mountains, European and Southern hemisphere parks, or even the summer camp, and that would create a much better/ more fairly spread contest.
