Judges Criteria:
Quality of action and level of riding are the main deciding factors. A tight edit with your best footage will probably score better with the judges. Do not make them wait through your B shots to see your A shots. Length of video is not a deciding factor. We need to see enough to see your skills. A tight 2 minute edit will usually be more impressive than a loose 3 minute edit. Multiple submissions are not required and a single edit can win the Grand Prize, however multiple submissions may help us get to know you better.
Judges will include Sammy Carlson, Sage Cattabriga-Alosa, Jeremy Jones and members of the TGR production team.
