Brilliant Mo-Mo!

perfect timing....off the plane in time to join the party! If the 2006 photos are anything to go by it should be awesome.

See you then.

mo what are the terms of usage for the photos submitted in the contest?

ie- will ion maintain ad rights for all images or just the winning team? where will the shots be seen after the contest... what is the duration of image use if so... ect.

thanks.

ION is asking for the right to use the images for coverage of the event, ie. magazines, YouTube slideshow, etc. and for use on their website (currently as a montage!). In the event ION would like to use the image for an ad they will negotiate with you for the right to use it.

Is there anyway to see the previous winning photos?

FYI, DJ Swoop just got up on a kiteboard for the first time, rode upwind first try, and learned sliding transitions on his second tack. Not to mention he kills it on the grinch with toeside backrolls off the kicker.

DJ Swoop (aka Karl) has been kiting 7 plus years!

I'm confusing Karl with ScottieB then. Sorry, brain fart.
