REDBULL "SHOOT TO THRILL"
SHOOT TO THRILL 2008 FILM WINNER
SHOOT TO THRILL 2008
In an effort to unite the Canadian skateboard community around one common project, Red Bull Shoot To Thrill is back in a whole new format leaving no Canadian maple leaf unturned.
Building on its past success, this year's event offers new opportunities to skaters across the country. When it all began in 2006, Red Bull Shoot to Thrill was a 72-hour photography contest. In 2007, it evolved into a Super 8mm motion picture contest. Moving with the momentum from last year's film project, which starred such skaters as Rick McCrank, Alex Gavin and Ryan Decenzo, this year's event opens its doors to the entire country with pro and amateur categories.
Read up on the Shoot to Thrill premiere with PICS and STORY
Ten selected 'Pro' teams from the major Canadian cities will be equipped with a Super 16mm Camera and 10 rolls of film. And for three days - Sept. 5-7 - they will have 72 hours to burn it all in this battle to win $8,000 cash for the best end-product. Photographers will also have a chance to dip into the pot, with a $2000 prize for best photo.

Matching the timeline of the Pro division, amateurs will be able to upload their best 3 - 5 minute digital segment from Sept. 5-7. The winner will be decided by the people via an open online vote on redbullshoottothrill.com, with top choice claiming $3000 in new filming equipment.
