“Introducing the iconic Carl Prettyman style.”
– Dave Hawthorne
At the start of the week we showed you entries 14 – 7 of our Summer of Fun contest, and we finally have the top 6 winners to debut. As corny as it may sound, I think just about any of these videos could have taken the top spot. It had gotten so close that the top two videos were separated by only 0.09 of a point. Everyone took different approaches and produced very different videos. The judges scored them all individually and we got an average score for each one. I said it before, and I’ll say it again, thank you to all of the teams and riders that entered our contest, and an extra big thanks goes out to MacNeil, Etnies, Eclat, Almond, Colony, Kink, BMX Gallery 4130, Sour Fever, Animal, 3Ride, Quintin, Division Brand, S-One Helmets, our panel of judges, and anyone else that helped us out in any way. We will be sorting out the list of prizes for all of the winners soon, but for now click below to watch the amazing videos from our top 6 teams of how they spent their Canada Day long weekend!
Andrew Schubert put together this sweet edit of James Van De Kamp shredding in Alberta for a week. Check it.
If your anywhere near Calgary head up to Bmx Gallery 4130 tomorow night (friday August 10th) at 7pm for their R&B jam. A bunch of Canadian shredders will be up there for it including Greg Flag, Taylor Elvy, Greg Henry, Jaumell Campbell and John Alden. Guaranteed good time right there.
If you’re anywhere near Winnipeg this weekend be sure to hit up the contest at Komenda on Sunday August 12th, registration starts at 12pm. check here for more details.
One day while out riding street in Vancouver we stumbled across a pile of mulch that looked like it could be ridden a little and sure enough Dill surprised everyone with a load of tricks thrown over the mulch.
After long last we finally have the results from our Summer of Fun contest. Teams had the Canada Day long weekend to film their riding and whatever else they were up to and edit it in to a short video for submission. Our group of 6 judges (Jason Enns, Dom Mach, Sam Lowe, Corey Dewey, Chris Silva, and David Hawthorne) then had the tough task of watching all 14 entries and scoring them all. Thanks to everyone that entered this contest and made it a success. We enjoyed watching all the videos and the hard work that everyone put in and hope to do more fun contests like this in the future. We will contact all teams shortly about prizes.
Because of the large number of entries we received we have broken down the results in to two parts. Click below for the 7th – 14th place winners, and tune back later in the week when we will announce the 1st – 7th place winners.
If your going to watch one edit today, do yourself a favor and watch this one. Dave Laliberte killing it all over Vancouver for his welcome to BSD edit.
Just a reminder that round 2 of the 2012 Canadian concrete is happening this weekend at Brookswood Park in Langley, BC. Get out there for it!
