Anything...its not the riding that will be highlighted. It will be mainly about filming techniques(ie. creative angles, choreographed riding sequences, etc...), and editing skills.

You could win this on trx90s if you are creative enough.

What if we don't really have a ridding team? Can us guys that just ride and mess around for fun enter? I have been doing editing for a couple of years now(still learning) but have gotten better and have some sweet vids out. I usually just ride with a couple of people and we do alotta different styles of taping.

Yes, absolutely. As long as its your group of friends and not just random guys you decided to film at the pit you ride at. Include the names, and its all good. Emphasis is on editing and camera work, not calibur of riding.

Alright sounds good. I usually ride with 2 other guys that ride quads and then one of my buddies rides a mountain bike. He usually ends up crashing more than he stays up so it makes for some good footage. He does do a good job keeping up with us, which amazes me.

Thats definitely cool man, Bender the crazed mountain bike guy makes an appearance in Crustys every once in a while. Jist fill out the info in the akraix forum page and your in. You can post the info here.

Also, Id appreciate it if people didnt share any of their work until the poll is up, I dont want anyone to be put at a disadvantage.
