ASRA - Australian Skateboard Racing Association


Once again, the Hopkin Skate video competition is upon us! This time we are going to do something a little different. Again we will be judging on your cinematography and editing skills but there will also be a checklist of things that MUST be included in your video for it to count.
Here is the gnar that must be included in the video:

- Perform a heelside AND toeside standup slide on a dirt road in the same shot
- Get 3 different angles of someone bombing a hill in a dinner suit
- An early grab into water (swimming pool, river or ocean)
- Rally down at least 8 stairs (where you ride down the stairs, no early grabbing or airs)
- Get a hug from a carpark security guard
- Ride through a crowded shopping mall
- Do a 180 standup slide and a 180 revert (where you slide back to regular) in a dress.
- Include a quick interview with your mum asking her what she thinks about her son skateboarding
- A shot of the Hopkin logo somewhere in the video, extra points for the logo to be sticker slapped in public or spray painted or even drawn on ('No Skateboarding' signs work the best)
- A helmet must be worn by every person in the video in all shots, even when your not skating (including your mum when you interview her, and the carpark security guard) Extra points for funky helmets such as the Daddow Devil Horns, helmets with Afros or Mow-Hawks, ect.
 
Each video must be no longer than 4 minutes and can be submitted by uploading to a video hosting website (such as youtube, vimeo, asra ect) and send a link to me and i will embed the entries into this post.

Now for the good part, the prizes! The winner will receive a Rayne Vendetta deck! Second place will get a Norfin Manta deck, and 3rd place will get a Madrid Bubbler.

Entries will close on the 9th of May

1st Entry from Meddii Blackburn: (was an awesome video but didnt finish the 8 stairs)

That is the price we are looking at but I won't be totally sure until they land which will be in about 2 weeks

This was tough to judge. After many beers and a complex scoring system that would make bugs proud we (Myself, Hop and Haggy) came to a decision with points awarded firstly for completing tasks, and then bonus points given and removed for both RAD stuff and half arsed shiz

1st place by a whisker goes to Meddii who will receive the first Rayne Vendetta that arrives in the country.

2nd goes to Merrick and AJ who get a Norfin Manta

3rd heads to our nations capital with Browen getting a Madrid Bubble complete


Because we had such a great time and laughed our guts out watching your videos the HopShop has decided to give the other 2 entry's that fell a good bit short of the criteria 1000 HopShop points each

Bonus prize 1 - Ben westover gets 1000 HopShop Points
Bonus prize 2 - Cooper/Pooley/toby get 1000 HopShop points
Can all the winners PM me your postal addresses so I can send the booty out
Browen forgot to get the Hopkin in there and Merrick you forgot to turn the music down during the interview so we could hear it

Merrick Wildash said:
