TGR Grom Video Contest - Want to be a Ski Movie Star?


Jackson, WY - Teton Gravity Research is proud to announce the launch of a new video contest, “Want to be a Ski Movie Star?” Skiers 17 years old and younger are being asked to submit a video edit up to 3 minutes in length showcasing their riding talents on the mountain. A panel of TGR athletes and producers will select one up and coming athlete to film on location for TGR’s for 2011 ski and snowboard film. In addition, a shortened version of the winning video will preview before TGR’s 2010 film, Light The Wick. Light the Wick will premier to over 80,000 fans this fall in more than 125 locations worldwide.

Skiers are asked to visit the contest site at TetonGravity.com to upload their videos. Submissions will be accepted until July 25, 2010. Videos will be judged based on the quality of riding and talent. All footage including park, pipe, urban, powder, freeride and the latest progressions are welcome. Music, filming and editing will not be a main judging criteria, although a tight edit with good filming will certainly influence the judges. Judges will include Sage Cattabriga-Alosa, Sammy Carlson, and Dylan Hood. The winner will be riding with TGR athletes and filming for a segment in TGR’s 2011 ski film. Do you have what it takes?
