How should I edit my video?

• Easy, don't edit your video. We want to see your 45-second line in real-time, just like you would see at a live contest.  No cuts, no edits, no speeding up the video, and no music. We want to see your best line from start to finish.

 

Can I add music?

• No, don’t add music, let the skating be the soundtrack

 

What are categories? What do you mean by street or park, how do I know which category to enter?

• Street means skating your run on any obstacles that are part of the street section at your skatepark as well as any lines that are filmed in the real streets outside of any skatepark. (stairs, rails, gap, hubbas, banks, quarter pipes, etc)

• Park means skating your run in either a bowl, halfpipe, pool or consistently skating transition for the duration of the video clip.

 

Can I use a private Instagram account?
