    TGR Photo Contest. Best Air and Best Pow

    Hey All. Here is a photo Contest we re running. I have seen so many sick shots already I can't wait to see what gets produced. You can also enter last years stuff as well. Hope you enjoy.
    TGR Photo Contest

    What: Submit your top photos from this winter in the Best Powder or Best Air Category for a chance to win. Feel free to submit as many photos as you want. Viewers vote to decide the winners and can spread the content around the web to get votes. The photo with the overall highest rating and most votes wins the grandprize! The photo with the highest rating and most votes in each category win prize packages. Each prize category will be for two as photography typically requires a rider and the documentarian.

    Catagories:

    Best Overall - The photo with the highest rating and most votes of all contest photos in either category.

    Best Powder - Powder riding is the essence of life. It is often described as life changing and undescribable. Submit your photo that best captures the act of riding Powder.

    Best Air - Air is the space where time stands still. Air can be found in terrain parks, off cliffs, small nolls, and backcountry jumps. Submit your best interpretation of air.

    Grand Prize: B.C. Heliskiing Trip for 2 to Last Frontier Heli-skiing and 1 Raging Viking Jacket from The North Face

    Best Powder: 2 large Duffles from The North Face, 2 pairs of Blog Skis from Atomic, 2 Backcountry Packages from BCA

    Best Air: 2 large Duffles from The North Face, 2 pairs of Blog Skis from Atomic, 2 Backcountry Packages from BCA

    I agree. Like this one:
    http://www.tetongravity.com/communit...spx?id=6978645

    FYI, A photo needs a minimum of 25 votes to be officially entered into the contest. This is so someone can't come in the last day and enter a photo and give it 1 vote of wo and take it. So share them up and get em voted.

    Nice! Just submitted these two photos from last season, but fully expect to be outclassed by the amount of talent behind the glass at this place.

    My mind is either at a loss or a barfing that my fingers can't match right now of what to type ...... needless to say, it is beyond comprehension of the radness you & the boyz have brought (over the past +decade) and will bring (through this thread)!!!

    you guys slay, what a great idea and thanks for "giving back"

    p.s. I predict this will be the single biggest thread that TGR420 ever started and one of the biggest threads in tgr board history; go get 'em boys & girls

    Can't wait to see what see what gets entered.

    Any thought to print the finalists in a mag for purchase? I know I'd be interested, and I'm betting the people entering wouldn't mind a few seconds of fame...

    You vote from 1 to 10 on each shot.... as opposed to just "voting" At first I thought that those numbers just took you to the next photos, voted 1 on a couple....my bad.

    .....go out and make this season the best season of your life. Ski that line, take that trip, slide that rail, make that leap, live for the moment, and make memories with friends that’ll last a lifetime, because as a great man once said, “If you don’t do it this year, you’ll be one year older when you do.”
