The Title Explains It
The first online S.K.A.T.E.-event everybody can enter.
How it works:
A new trick, that must be redone, is presented by a top skater every Monday.
You have seven days to redo, film, and upload the trick on www.king-of-skate.com. An upload countdown on www.king-of-skate.com will announce the time left.
All tricks must be done on flat ground!
If you land the trick, you are moving on to next round.
As soon as you don't upload the trick within seven days, the trick is not clearly visible or not landed properly (hand or foot touches the ground, no clean rolling away), you will recieve a letter.
If that happens to you five times and you complete the word S.K.A.T.E., you are out of the race.
To become the King of S.K.A.T.E, you have to survive the whole starter field and be the last competitor left.
You can enter the competition until the fifth week, but you will get a letter for every so far completed trick. If you enter in the third week, there will already be two completed tricks. Therefore you recieve the letters S and K, but you still have the chance to become the King of S.K.A.T.E. and win 2.500,- EUR cash + an exclusive interview in the Titus Magalog.
The weekly prize is yours, when you get the highest rating for your landed trick after the upload closure on Sunday evening. Furthermore you will be mentioned as winner of the week in the playboard.de news.
The landad tricks can be rated without exception by all registered BESTTRICK-users. Independent of the fact if they are entering the competition or not.
The voting for the tricks ends with the upload-closure. To increase your chance of many votes and a high rating, you should upload your trick as soon as possible every week.
For the competition entry you need an own BESTTRICK-Account.
All uploaded tricks must be done by you in person.
Already uploaded tricks on BESTTRICK are not accepted. You should redo and not present the tricks.
The decision if a trick is landed or not is exclusively made by our unbiased judges. Their judgement is correct and final.
If you are violating these rules, you are excluded from the competition.

Skateboarders set to jam in Lunenburg
by
Robert Hirtle
Veteran local skater Vaughn Whynot
With spring just around the corner,
it's time for skateboarding enthusiasts of all ages to dust off their
boards and start getting the kinks out for the upcoming season.
One thing that is sure to help them brush off the rust is an
event entitled Spring Into Skate Jam, slated for the Lunenburg
Skateboard Park April 6 beginning at noon.
The event is being organized by veteran South Shore skating
aficionado Vaughn Whynot, who says the idea is to stage a no-cost
skating event that will allow adults and youth alike to come together,
show off their boarding prowess "and just have a good time.
"What a skate jam is, compared to a skate competition, is that kids
would [have] to pay to enter a contest," Mr. Whynot explains. "[But] a
skate jam is groups of friends getting together … [to] just skate and
have fun. What people started doing was saying hey, why can't we do
that and give prizes out for the best skater in the group."
With that idea in mind, Mr. Whynot solicited several local
businesses as well as the Lunenburg recreation department, which
graciously donated prizes for the winning skaters.
Those will be awarded in a variety of competitions which will be
staged for three different skill levels - peewee, intermediate and pro.
He is also looking for volunteers who might be willing to video and
photograph the event as well as individuals "who can help out and just
make sure everything is fine and going smoothly.
"We're kind of hoping some bands would donate their time to come
and play a little bit. That would serve as advertising to them and
bring a little bit of music for the kids. If we did have bands, it
would put a lot more of a feel to the event," he says.
Mr. Whynot says that while skate jams have been held in Lunenburg
before, this event will be different as it will be used as a kickoff
for the summer skating season.
A similar event held in Lunenburg in 2007 attracted over 100
skaters, and he is anticipating that number to double as expressions of
interest have come from as far away as Newfoundland for this year's jam.
"And I'm working on trying to get at least one or two pro
skateboarders to come down just for the weekend to sign a couple of
things and that sort of thing," he adds.

Hello,
About one week ago today, me and a couple buddies
drove to the Bridgewater Bridgewater
So to the happenings of last week which ironically was
on Canada
Well 1/3 cops was half decent to us the other two
which were men were out-of-line to put it nicely. We forked over our prized possessions
with hesitation (skates). But no it wasn’t it over it seems everyone 16 and
older gets a fine of 135 and a court date. Well ill be going to court mid November
for doing something I love. Ill walk in with a smile on my face and a heltmet-less
angel’s shirt under my over.
Oh and why this all happened is because of the helmet law.
And when you grow up not wearing a helmet. And then they
See one kid get hurt at a park "not even
seriously" or
They get some fake world statistics, they try
Too slap helmets on us. Mind you this law is only
Effective in Nova Scotia
That’s why skateboarding is a crime,
And why i'm a convict.
