The judges will look at all of your submitted photos and judge you as a skateboard photographer based on all your best shots.

Alright! Good to see the new comp up so quickly.

Here’s a photo of Jamey Foxton I shot the other day (10/11), ollie into a bank on the Northern Beaches.

I’ll post a few more in a little while, I’m liking the new ideas thrown into the comp!

Great start to the new contest, walker!

Excellent! It’s up and running already. I actually shot (I think) a heap of somewhat decent shots after the previous competition haha feeling lucky this year!

And do we have to use that logo for best edited…? Can’t everyone just assume that every photograph that is upload be eligible for the “Best Edit?” Just seems tiresome hahaha

That first shot is sick, K2.

Cheers mate

Dont know if it classes as the edit category or not, but added the BW logo anyway. Its just a photo I tweaked a bit in PS so if its not really classed as edited then ill drop the logo out of it.

K2! For that first shot, it would of been nice if you got him separated from the crowds by getting him on that pavement. It has a nice documentary feel to it.

It’s park, but I just like how my mate made this trick look pretty stylish haha

Good stuff guys!
