The public voting period of the inaugural Dew Video Battle is now half way through. With one week to go till voting closes and till judges hand down their verdict on the overall winner – the social media battles are heating up as teams fight for votes and their share in the $10,000 cash purse prize.
Launched last week, more than 50 people across 10 team videos worked relentlessly over 6-weeks of hard-core filming, riding and editing across the Aussie and Kiwi mountains to create the best team video possible. Assisted by a great start to the snow season in Australia and NZ the entries to this year’s Video Battle are diverse, entertaining and all bring something unique to the contest for the public to enjoy.
From Backcountry jumps, to urban rail sessions, to Taco outfits and one-footed antics all the riders and teams have made this event an instant success. So far the result from the public has been incredible with over 20,000 views on the team videos and over 7000 votes already counted – the race is on and there are some big surprises.
After a small gathering of team riders, filmers and friends last Wednesday night to launch the videos at the Lake Jindabyne Bowling Club, the videos were dropped online the following morning for the public to watch and vote. Each day the public can vote and go in the chance to win $2400 from Mt Dew.
Watch all the videos and vote for your favourite team.
Voting Closes on Wednesday August 8th, 2012 AEST at 11:59pm.
Here are a few screen grabs from the videos.
