I've had a couple of late entries to the film comp. After discussion with all the film makers we have deceided to enter them, but with a significant penalty on the scoring. They can be viewed here. Thanks to all sponsors and filmakers and again and those who have rated the films. Now the judging can commence ... |

The films are in! See the thumbs on the left to view the low res versions .... (I will upload a higher res version of each as soon as Ive standardised the quality of each).
Obviously we are down on numbers but hopefully you will agree that the quality is there. The judges will give their opinion but remember that one vote will be cast on the basis of the public star rating within the site. Please contribute to this, especially if you are a geniune neutral!!
A big shout again to the sponsors Pyranha, WCK and The Outdoor Warehouse who put their hand in their pocket to get behind this project - thanks. |

The film competition is now open - and now its rained there is the possibility of some films being made in the UK!
This years judges will determine the destination of a sponsorship deal and £200 in vouchers. They are (in alphabetical order);
- Ali Marshall - Kayak film maker and expedition/adventure kayaker
- Dave Kwant - Kayak film maker and expedition/adventure kayaker
- Dave Manby - Expedition kayaker, author and film producer
- Doug Ammons - Expedition paddler, commentator and the best best author the sport has produced
- Leo Houlding - Extreme sports athlete and media guru
- Peter Knowles - Expedition leader and guidebook publisher
- Roger Huyton - Expedition kayaker and TV producer
- Ross Purdy - Extreme sports athlete/photograher
- Steve Rogers - Expedition kayaker, film maker and extreme sports photographer
- A rep from each of our sponsors, Pyranha,WCK and the Outdoor Warehouse
- and YOU... the public vote on this site will account for the rainchasers 'voice' within the panel
The criteria for judging are loose. Judges must simply decide the 'best paddlesports film'. The spirit of it is to say something about your experience of the sport, not just show us what you have paddled. The previous winners have put thought into the narrative (and the soundtrack) of their films. You won't necesarily need to be a gnarly dude! Full rules are here. Early entries can be mailed in now, but a video logo will be available very soon.
A big shout to the sponsors, without whom this would not be possible. |
