yes! its getting closer and closer to summer, so, perhaps a summer challenge is in order?
seeing as a few people expressed interest, thought i'd make a thread, and aye.
for those unaware of what it is; something like this
who's down for this?

There's been so many atempts at these kinds of things. They've all failed.
ALL of them.
I really don't know why we keep trying.
I really don't know why we keep trying.
Am I right in thinking this is like a mini KOTR/ big push, with Sken or someone setting the challenges?
that's the main idea of it.
this threads only to see who'd actually be up for making an edit for it anyway.
that way, can decide whether it's worth actually setting challenges or not.

I'd definitely be up for it.
i'll be up for it
just depends if am on holiday when the dates are set

What if there was loads of time do to the edit?
Like 4 or 5 weeks. This would mean more people would be able to enter.
I myself, don't have a camera, or any ability, therefore shall not be entering.

The Challenges
All Challnges are spilt into sections, you dont have to edit them that way...
Obviously the more challenges done the more likely you are to win, however it isnt all down the challenges, editing and filming will take a huge toll in the judging.. The final vid should be edited with music, titles the whole package, even if you can knock out the best skating in the world if it aint edited and filmed nicely it aint worth shit..
Sesh challenges: These challenges have to be done within one session i.e. one visit: be as silly as you like with the amount of footege you put into the final vid but a minimum of 1mins from each session is expected.. these can be done with lines or just a load of one hitters, whatever you please..
Any questions ask in this thread, please guys dont drop out, because it only takes one team to make the whole thing to fall apart.. but for the final vids PM them to me!
You have until Friday 1st September to film and edit as many of the challenges as you can
Have fun kids!

The judging will be done on a `public` based response, where all videos will be posted up via a new thread, but also with judging from myself where i will take into considration the quality of the filming and editing of the video, the amount of challenges actually completed, and then the quality, style, orginality of the skateboarding
Overall though the winner will come down to a team which not only create a well editied and nicely filmed skate vid but on an entertaining one

This sounds so sick!
Those challenges are so so rad.
Wish i had a camera/some friends willing to do this/the ability to do this
Can't wait to see the results though.

I propose some new challenges are created by myself and Warlock.
(To go alongside the old ones, but to make it a bit more fruity.)

The ultimate challenge:
Play chicken with a train, and win.

Group attempt at Wallride or be sick.
This actually sounds so fun if it would work out.
"Longest sesh in front of a Police station"!
I could actually do at least one of these challenges successfully...

international shekler day was on the 12th.
this cannot be done for another 353 days.
Do members of said team need to be members of sk8uk?
Is there a limit on how many members per team?
Assuming they dont need to be members here (which if they do ill get them to sign up) and there is no limit to how many members per team (again if there is ill have to cut a few people out) Our team will consist of the following people:
Myself
Nick Langdon
Ginger Neil
Rob Mckinney
Al Manly
Plus a few others i havent asked yet

I think 8 is a bit much.
whatever the case, we're taking advantage of the summery weather and starting filming today.

Anything more than 5 would be too cluttered and awkward to organise.
KOTR, Big Push, etc. rarely have more than 5 actual skateboarders taking part in each team.

Mmm perhaps, that would work fine. Maybe I was just pushing the 5 in the knowledge of the extremely good skaters I know you have access too
so are we using last year challenges or is more to be added?
How about we all pm as many challenges as we can think of to a nominated person, then said person chooses from the list?
yep, am up for that
anyone want to be that nominated person?
