Contribution BMX Video Contest Now Accepting Submissions
Contribution Video is now accepting submissions for its 1st contest. Submissions will be open until June 30th. There are prizes being offered up from Odyssey. All of funds raised are being donated to three user-voted charities. More information is available at http://www.contributionvideo.com/.
Contribution video contest is a grassroots contest aimed to highlight potentially unheard of talent in BMX riding and BMX videography while at the same time raising some money for charities within the BMX industry. There are 3 categories: Single trick — single-trick videos are exactly what they say on the tin; a single rider doing a single trick. Standard part—One rider starring in a full-length (2-4 minutes) video part, as you see in your favorite company videos. Group entry—Several riders cooperating together to submit a montage part. There are two prizes awarded for each of these categories, one is picked by the general public through voting on the Contribution website and one is picked by a panel of sponsors and judges.
It is 15 dollars to enter into the competition with 100% of the proceeds going to BMX related charities (http://contributionvideo.com/charity). There are tons of great prizes available (http://contributionvideo.com/prizes) for you to win and each entry has a chance to win in the general public voting and in the category picked by the judges.

Posted by: BP at May 7, 2008 06:29 PM^We're not running this contest (only providing prizes), and the final charities were chosen by riders on various web forums.
Posted by: Odyssey at May 8, 2008 09:33 AMi think this is a great idea. riders helping other riders by riding! $15 is more than reasonable.
Posted by: bobby at May 8, 2008 11:55 AMFor fuck's sake, make some lugless Flat forks already... The zero offset forks got sold out and I need a fork, preferably Odyssey Classic Flat fork with zero offset and no brake mounts. WHEN???
Posted by: Daniil at May 9, 2008 12:18 AMA new shipment of flat forks arrives next week.
They still have removable mounts though.
Posted by: Odyssey at May 9, 2008 09:48 AMAny chance of Flat forks without brake mounts in the shipment after this? Give me a hope...
