If you haven't read the interview yet, you can check it out here https://www.newschoolers.com/web/content/news/news_id/2522/

I wanted to create a thread about it so if you guys have any questions or comments I can answer them right here for you.

Good luck!

if they are trying to make this as much like a real slopestyle comp as possible, i would assume yes...

Yes it will hurt your score, just like in a regular comp.

i think the most legitimate way to do it would be film the lift ride and time lapse it. My park would have only 5, its east coast too so thats something you have to think about.

So basically just shred the gnar as hard as you can any way you can 6 hits in a row?? DO work

Is there anyway you could push the date back or give an extension? It's going to rain/snow in tahoe all week and none of the parks will be open. I was really pumped on this but don't think I'll be able to get a vid in by march 8th if the weather keeps up... pleaseee!???!?!?

It seems like it would be hard to film six features with no stopping and no landing on anyone in a lot of crowded parks

can you straight air a small first jump in a line and not have it count as one of your six hits?

"How the competition will work:
Free to compete but must have a newschoolers.com account. No one
will be able to see your competition video until after the submission
deadline, at which point we will make all competition runs available
for everyone to see on Newschoolers.com"

And furthermore.....   since it seems easier to make posts than read the rules on the contest page.





"Your video must be submitted by 11:59pm EST Sunday March 8th.
Judges will have 1 week to determine finalists.
Finalists will be announced on NS at 10pm EST Sunday March 15th.
Finalists must submit a new video for their final run by 11:59pm EST Wednesday April 1st. "



So now you ask?  Who are the judges cause you didn't read all the information on the contest page...



"The judges are Scott Hibbert, The Original Dave Crichton, Tanner Rainville, Ahmet Dadali and Michael Clarke"

It doesn't ask for a phone number or email on the entry page, and it says the finalists will be notified by phone or email...just thought I'd throw that out there....

Hey Everyone we are extending the contest 1 more week!

You have to submit it by 10pm EST Sunday March 15th. I received messages about computer issues, upload issues, etc so here is your chance to get your video uploaded or film it if you forgot.

Good luck and don't forget to submit it by Sunday.

Scott

word....  we filmed in the freakin crappy conditions, paying premium lift ticket prices for a place with 6 features, forget about being a nuisance and snaking everyone waiting to drop.. 

extending the deadline is bull.

Argh. This screws the people who scrambled to get one together.  The people who didn't even try to put make one in time get rewarded with another week...

Guys, we recognize that this was a tough decision.    However, since this is an important contest, and there is a lot of money on the line we wanted to make sure that everyone had entered.   We know that there are a lot of lazy people out there who just forgot, but truly deserve a chance at it. 

This is a first-time contest at this scale, and we decided that it was in the best interest of the contest to make sure there were as many entries as is possible. 

So, first off, if you didn't enter... what the fuck is wrong with you?   Do you hate winning money?   Do you hate having fun?    Get in there!!!   Give it a go, there's no harm in entering... plus don't you want to be a part of internet history?

Second, if you DID enter, and are one of the people claiming you could have done a better video, we will allow a second video entry into the contest.  Your first entry will be deleted and eliminated from the contest runnings. 

I'm sorry for those who feel this is unfair, but with many new things sometimes we need to tweak it until we get it right. 

Thanks for competing... I watched all the entries and they're super sick!   There's definitely room for someone to throw it down though... at this point its still anyone's game!

It certainly does have to be a follow cam! 

I'm sure your mom rips... she'll be able to do it just tell her to pre-air the knuckle so she doesn't fly to the flats.  :)
