WOOHOO!
Wow, totally didn't expect to win this...
This is going to be interesting.. I dunno if I'm fit enough to traips around campus with a slab of beer with me..
For the record:
I will do it in full mountain gear, wearing my boardworld T-Shirt.
I may have a beer or two to start off, just to lighten the load!

Cheers for all the props and congrats to T-spec, just got your email mate. Boardworld is run really well and we have respect for that, so more than happy to get behind the place.
Yeah Mizo, well spotted, the Tachyon is a very underrated camera, as came out in that Transmoto article (sportscamera supplied ALL the cams to the mag for that test actually) note how well the little Mini DV MD80 did too, which is only $69 (for those of you on a super budget)
Crackers - you can bet your wooden leg we make 'em follow through! Cheers for passing on the webby, that's how people basically hear about us, slow process but getting there  - imagine if you had won - we would've needed footage of you keelhauling someone or giving them cat o' nine tails... haha.
So we're thinking about another comp - any suggestions you boardworlders would like to make for the next comp theme? Not that we can't think of something ourselves - just want to see how warped your shredder minds are.
You guys VS us and Jeremy for a killah comp theme - bring on the sickness!!

haha, you're a bad man Crackers
yeah get that brainbox thinking for sure.
We found another snowboard vid done with the Tachyon and put it on our blog. The fella's first time using it, so he'll sort how to get it more steady over time etc.
A really fun edit with a a range of riding in different light conditions - especially low light/night. thought you guys (generic sense of course) might want to check it out and get your "Mambo" on (you'll get what i mean when you hear the crazy soundtrack, not what I woulda thought to put with it, but it made me laugh)
