I'm pleased to announce the 2nd Annual Slope Aerobatics.com Video Contest!
Official RCGroups Thread for the Contest
Last year's contest was a big success, read all about it here. This year's contest should be even better, because I've pushed out the deadline for submissions to September 1, 2008, so there should be ample time for everyone to combine the right plane, the right pilot and the right conditions for some awesome flying.
Like last year, there will be prizes awarded to the top finishers. This year, thanks to the generosity of our sponsors, the top five finishers will receive prizes... including a grand prize of a 54" Destiny from SoaringUSA! I'm getting excited just writing about this... Here's to another great contest!!
HOW TO PARTICIPATE aka THE RULES:
1. Post a short video (3 minutes maximum) of your VERY BEST slope aerobatics footage as a reply to the official RCGroups thread for the contest. You don't have a lot of time, so cut, chop, slice, winnow, bansai and chisel the crap out of your footage till you have the cream of the crop, best of the best, "Top Gun" footage, and then post that. As needed, you are allowed to change your entry up until the deadline, but only one entry per person. "Person" being defined as the person posting the video, which may or may not be the same person (or persons) that are flying in the video.
2. Any kind of non-motorized slope plane is welcome.
3. All submissions must be posted to this thread by no later than midnight Pacific (PST) time September 1, 2008.
4. Winners will be chosen by the readership of RCGroups.com, who will vote for their favorite videos. Top five finishers will receive prizes (see below).
5. Top five videos will be immortalized on SlopeAerobatics.com
6. The prizes are as follows:
FIRST PLACE:
SoaringUSA 54" Destiny (Value: $219)
SECOND PLACE:
Leading Edge Gliders Le Fish (Value: $119)
THIRD PLACE:
Leading Edge Gliders Guppy (Value: $98)
FOURTH PLACE:
Dream Flight Alula (Value: $50)
FIFTH PLACE:
SlopeAerobatics.com "Caution Low Flying Fish" T-Shirt (Value: $25)
Very nice!! Big thank you to our sponsors!!
I'm really excited about this and hope everyone else is, too. Last year's contest was great fun and we saw some awesome videos posted. Hopefully this year, with its longer window, will allow everyone to post their very best videos.
Saludos a todo,
Steve
