A week into the THE RED BULL JERSEY BARRIERS CONTEST Nocturnal's barrier was stolen. Which, in itself, is a trick worth awarding since the things way 300 pounds and are not easily moved.
And so Nocturnal was out of the running. Until the last day when their replacement barrier arrived. The guys muscled out a ton of good footage in the course of one day to creep in and snake the prize with this little number by KYLE NICHOLSON, getting jumped by a Vroom Vroom.
It may not be the gnarliest trick but it definitely is the nuttiest.
Even if that trick didn't win it Nocturnal posted up
three minutes worth of footage in the final hours and any one of their tricks could have taken it.
In the end the Red Bull Skate team was going to vote on the Top 5 clips as voted by the fans but due to rampant cheating, extortion, hanging chads, manipulation and cyber warfare the voting was opened up to all the clips and the winning clip ended up being one of Nocturnal's that was submitted the last day of the contest.
We thank and appreciate all the shops, skaters and readers that participating in making this event such a good time.
Congrats, Kyle, Nocturnal and Philly.
Red Bull is proud to present THE RED BULL JERSEY BARRIERS CONTEST where 12 of the East Coast's most prominent skateshops are given their own custom made Jersey Barrier to film, gather and post footage of their team riders, friends, family, visiting pros and couch touring vagabond skaters sessioning the barrier.
New clips will be uploaded to the website constantly. Shops are encouraged to post new footage as often as they like, so be sure to keep checking back.
Your vote counts. Vote as much as you like for your favorite clip. The clips with the most votes can be
seen on the Top Five page, which is updating constantly. The Top Five clips at the end of the summer will be watched and voted on by the Red Bull Skate Team and they will pick the winning clip. For best clip the skater wins $1000, the filmer/editor wins $1000 and the shop he rides for will also earn $1000. Winners will be announced October 1st 2008.
So if you live anywhere near any of the 12 shops involved and you got something for the barrier, hit the shop up and ask to film a trick. Who knows? It could be you that wins $1000.
