Gnarly dude!

Instead of having a snowboard competition where all the chaps and ladies go big to win, Transworld Snowboard magazine held a competition where the winner was decided on who made the best 5 minute film and took the best 10 photos.

What a brilliant idea.

So it wasn't just about the riders, it was about the photographers and film makers too. Creativity winning!

Oh yes, and we know who won, but as yet you can only get the winning film on itunes in the States of Americans.
