Hope you guys like free stuff! I’m going to do my best to make this a weekly thing, but no promises. The concept is simple. I’m going to randomly give away stickers, NS merch, random gear, etc in exchange for your feedback about various parts of Newschoolers, such as forums, NSTV, contests, news, the home page, social media, the mobile site, etc.

Today we’re going to be looking at the Newschoolers.com Facebook page. I have ten sticker packs ready to be shipped.

Here’s what I need from you:

- Head on over to our Facebook page (we’d suggest giving it a like while you’re visiting)

- Scroll through our timeline and check out what’s been going on

- Post your favourite piece of content in this thread

- If you’d like, share that content on Facebook as well. Because hey, why not?

- At the end of the day, I’ll randomly pick ten members who have posted in here

I like how you post the photo of the day because it can be hard to find if your browser goes right to the Ns homepage.

I like showing the photo of the day on the FB page because it is easier for me to see it than using mobile...and it must get more views, right?

So if you have NS stickers, does that mean they will be available in the store again soon? I am waiting on decaling my new helmet up till I get the NS stickers so I can lay everything out.

Glad everyone likes the #nsPOTD -- the point is obviously to show the photo, but it's also pretty rad for a member to have their photo posted (and themselves tagged) by us. Not everyone is surrounded by skiers, so it's a cool way for people to show their other non-ski friends that they're killing it!

At least that's how I look at it.

That'd be me! Glad you're enjoying it.

And totally agree -- the forums can be daunting if you're just dropping in for the first time. Not to mention it's a little harder finding quality threads during the summer.

Shredsauce mega park was awesome. Wish I had more time to play it.

And it is hard to find quality threads, but the hot page has brought out the best of NS summer drama. Such as the Jiberish fakes and Epic Planks scam. Plot twists and shockers everywhere.

well finding this thread on fb was pretty nice. I love being able to see what threads have really taken off without having to look through every thread on ns itself. All of the good photoshops and whatever are pretty nice on my news feed.

I know this may seem like I just went for the cover photo, but I did not. I find Lisa Zimmerman quite a babe and when I saw the picture you poster of her doing a hand drag 3 I thought "Hey, I can do that!"

I really enjoy that you post the popular threads, videos, etc.. because some times I miss that stuff and never see it. But with the facebook page it keeps me up to date on the nice stuff goin' on.

The thread promotion is the best, I always check Facebook in the morning, so it's nice to have a segue into NS like that.

I like the variety of stuff on the page. It ranges from not only news about pros and their films, but also to news about members on here. And every once and a while there's a funny picture in there haha.

having just recovered from a broken neck and femur, i know how this guy felt. got some almost identical photos of my x rays, and got some pretty sweet scars to show off now as well.

i really like how popular threads get shared. that is where i find some threads originally.


Also, "The cause of and solution to all of skiing's problems." is pure gold.

I like that you guys promote threads created by the average user, like the FB post on Jun 23rd about imaginative features. It's a nice change of pace from seeing pro-related posts and pictures

Right here's what you do. You send the password for your insty out to alllllll the filmers on NS, then we film minis all the time, it will be the best account ever. Think of all the crazy shit that will go down, itll be rad.

imagine what hood crew would post

That's the plan! At least with our content producer programs.

(Although we won't be sending out passwords -- there's other ways to allow people to post to our account without possibly compromising it.)
