Here we are Friday and time to give away a few more GoPro HD cameras, so the following people will be getting a new toy in the mail

Adrenaline Follow Cams! by .SimonB.

"Im an avid kayaker(+200 days per year), skier(+50 days per year) and mountain biker (+50 days per year). I enjoy filming and editing videos to share these experiences and a GOPRO would really help get the viewer in the moment. How sick would it be to have a kayaking helmet or follow cam off a 20-30 ft waterfall?"

Girl Does Sports. by kerry.fs

"With my gopro i would simply film all the 'extreme' sports that i love. whether its skiing,mountain biking, bmxing, wakeboarding, ripsticking, skateboarding, longboarding, and even sledding my gopro would hardly ever be turned off.not a lot of girls in my area do sports like the ones i do, and i would love to show them how much fun they can be."

Gnarshmallow cam by alexdehaan

"Never miss that epic Gnarshmallow run again. I stomped a dub 1080 truck revert to mute 1350…….to rail. No joke. If this Go Pro wasn’t made of cardboard I could actually prove it –in glorious High Definition video of course"

Congrats to this weeks winners. Keep the awesome entries coming and don't forget we still have 2 rounds left.

Okay, I'm not one to bitch, especially since I was lucky enough to win one of these....but this is ridiculous.  These guys admitted they already have 2 while attempting to take a blatantly unfair and anti-NS advantage.

AAAAHHHHH im so pumped!! thanks so much NS. i agree that my photoshopping was weak, but i actually made that in Microsoft Word, so yeah. But film and edit wise, you wont be disappointed. i can now capture video in all seasons of the year. thanks ns and thanks GOPRO!

On the topic of down voting, i think that that is really gay. no one should at the end of a week of voting have a 1.5 thats kinda wrong. also the top 10 scores all dropped by at least 3 points throughout the day from people down voting. cut the shit and be happy that GOPRO and NS do so much for you. NS can see through all the bull and they can tell who will actually use them. Thanks again NS and GOPRO and to everyone else, keep trying and get creative!

Congrats. I can't wait to see some sick footy

As to the voting down... I think it's just ridiculous. I submitted my entry earlier today and didn't vote on it to see what would happen. Half an hour later 4 people voted my entry a 1. No votes above a 1. Even the worst contest entry doesn't deserve a 1. That is just cruel

It's a cool comp with awesome prizes. I'd love to win, but seriously, it's a privellege, not a right. A bonus that shows how cool NS and GoPro are - Anyway, back to the drawing board to try to come up with something people will think is sick!

Also, I loved going through and checking them all out and rating them - (made my work day go heaps quicker!)

These winners are indeed the weakest by far. Chad's Gap entry definitely had these all beat. And as far as the first winner goes, the kayaking picture has copyright clearly written all over it, which would lead me to assume it is not even his own image, which is straight bullshit. Maybe I'm wrong but I seriously doubt it.

To everyone who is complaining this weeks winners were unoriginal, I challenge you to step up and make something better. We have 2 more weeks of this contest and we want to give these to some really creative entries. Also remember that the more you guys mess with the voting, the less likely you are to win.
