@brule: imo its a bit frustrating when gopro sponsored athletes win... they're already paid to show they use the product, make gopro sales go higher (in principeà and they they win the contest prizes ? there's a problem there ....
yo say this while i say, well we just have to step up our games, do you really want that money ? go get it, work for it... :/ or you go easy on yourself and say, dont focus on the money, focus on the fun but please, stand by your words, no offense, just,to many people are complaining on how unfair it is... when it really is not
I'm not supported by GoPro but I did win one from them through last years comp on one of the trails I built. I don't know for sure but I don't believe Yoann or Dustin are either.
I do think the best part of this competition though is the fact that everyone can compete regardless of pro/am status has a chance to shine.

Message: Dear Pinkbike staff can you choose some mortal/average people like the audience you got here to win ? I would appreciate that. Thanks.
P.D: These winners are sponsored, we don't.
