WHAT MAKES A GOOD TRIP REPORT?

We are looking for inspiring storytelling, epic adventures, passion for snowboarding, funny moments, interesting people, fun times with friends, quality photography, quality videos - quality documentation to share your adventures with our community. A good trip report should consist of words, photos and videos.


HOW TO ENTER:

All trip reports must be posted as a new thread in the Mountains & Travel section of the forums.

Please title your thread as Trip Report: name-of-your-trip-report-here
i.e. Trip Report: Box Head’s 7 adventure through New Zealand

To enter this contest, you must post the link to your Trip Report into this thread.
i.e. My trip report is here: https://www.boardworld.com.au/forums/viewthread/3325/


TERMS & CONDITIONS

Trip reports must be from the current 2012 Southern Hemisphere snow season.

You may submit one entry prior to July 31st, 2012 (6pm AEST), and one entry after July 31st, 2012 (6pm AEST). This will give you an opportunity to submit a trip report for an early season trip, plus a trip later in the season.

If you do not submit an entry prior to July 31st, 2012 (6pm AEST), you may only submit one entry in total. You may only enter twice if your first entry is submitted before the July 31st deadline.

If you do submit two trip reports, they must be from two separate trips.

The winners can only win one prize. i.e. you can’t win first and third prize. We will count your best entry.

This contest closes on Sunday, September 30th, 2012 (6pm AEST). We may decide to extend the contest if the season is extended.

This contest is open to any trips in the southern hemisphere this season (Australia, New Zealand, South America etc). However we will only ship the prizes free of charge to an Australian address. The winner may have to pay additional charges if the postal address is out of Australia.

The winning trip reports will be chosen by a panel of industry judges.


Winners will be able to select prizes from our 2012 sponsors…

yeh, no one has entered yet.

rider, question, can I do a TR of multiple days, even though they were not a part of the “same trip”? So for example, I did 5days, then a week later did another 3? Cant be combined into 1 report?

oh, haha, thats not the reason I want to do it. Just so my 2 weeks holidays I can count as 1 trip report.
If I combine Paddling into any of my snow trips, it will definately be included into the TR for here

Last year I was spewing, cos I didnt actually link my TR into the comp thread by accident and my opening weekend TR that included Mt Hotham riding, Mt Feathertop hiking and riding, and a day of paddling didnt get considered in the comp. was my own fault

I didn’t even see that tr send me a link. I am in USA so don’t get a chance o jump on her that often.


What I ment by first post was that I hope he allows you to combine days on snow in to ur tr coz I am sure it will be sick.

Just finished typing up my Perisher trip report. In typical style it’s overly long and probably boring but once I’ve got some photos together I’ll post it up.
