Just notices this bad boy laying there under the Contests tab.

https://www.newschoolers.com/contest/137/The-Newschoolers-Pilot-Project---presented-by-7-Mile-Skis


Who's showin up for the battle royale over 2,400. Only problem is you have to be over 18 and in the US. I probably won't be entering since I'd rather beg for money on kickstarter, but it could be pretty sweet for someone out there who knows more than one trick.

Also this is kind of funny, from the contest page, "Never before has there been such a wealth of talent putting out top quality content from all corners of the globe, every single day."

Too bad the only corner being considered is the U.S. Understandably though contents and international law don't always jam.

Aren't we usually excluded because of Quebec's stupid contest laws? Or something like that?

As a fellow Canadian, I completely understand how much it sucks that our brothers aren't included. However, its dramatically more work to get Canada included and for this re-release we decided to keep it simple and stick with what we can do.

If this model re-proves itself, we'll spend a lot more time and money in the future opening it up to other regions.

For anyone who fits the rules though, this is a huge opportunity!

Really bummed to see yet again there is nothing to offer us in Canada :(
I understand the circumstances, but honestly the exposure alone would be a prize in its self!!
What about a Canadian exposure contest? No cash, just write ups and count downs awarded.
I would bust my ass for that opportunity!

I know! I mean I'm Canadian so this REALLY kills me. Its our legal team, and we're working on how to start including Canada more without so much cost. We have to hire a Canadian-specific legal council for each contest we run so the costs are huge.

Ya they ride at my home resort when not hitting urban. They definitely make great videos and benefit the freeski community!
