Firing Squad: MNMNT Champions Battle

By • Jul 12th, 2011 • Category: Features, Latest, Photo Battle, The Champs

We’ve got four winners, and that means it’s time to give away the big prize: a Monument 777 snowboard. We all know these photographers can social network, but can they actually take a photo? It’s up to you to vote for the very best shot of the month and decide.

***Next week will be a regular battle. Theme is crash shots so submit your best carnage for a chance to win!***

[poll id="332"]

The winner of this battle will receive a MNMNT 777 Snowboard*.

This is the monthly champions battle, but the Firing is a weekly photo competition pitting photos against each other in a battle of supremacy. If you think you can do better or you just want a chance at glamorous prizes such as a $50 gift certificate good for anything at Buyskateshoes.com? Submit your photos for a chance at glory! Next week’s battle theme will be crash shots (before, during or after). Send your shot in to submissons@yobeat.com. The top five images will do battle. A new battle begins each Tuesday. For specifics on submitting your photo, check out our submission guidelines.

    The two skate shots are noticeably better than the two snowboard shots in a battle to win a snowboard on a snowboard site. What does that mean? Fuck if I know.

    #3 is all that is wrong with 2011 snowboarding. Zero real pressing, just twirly bird shit that happens to make contact with an object every once and a while. Tricks used to be tricks, not things that just happened.

    I think Photo 1 is a sick shot *highfive* I think photo 4 is by far the best though.

    #1 the snowboarders outa focus, #2 is a shitty trick and its not exposed properly, #3 is the king of all ass shots and hes got motion blur and the most annoying solar flare ever and #4 used the rim light on the tree… instead of actually using it on the skater who is wearing all black… i vote BOYCOTT

    Photo 2 isn’t a terrible photo, but it’s certainly not worthy of that many votes; photo 4 is the illest

    1 – guy in the sky/horrible comp.
    2 – completely centered. (centered, clearly, does not work in favor for this image)
    3 – ass shot. the end.
    4 – strong comp, good use of lighting, good timing. black blacks and white whites. winner.

    If you can PROVE he’s cheating, we will disqualify him. Having a lot of votes doesn’t prove anything. Euros are really good at this stuff.

    it’s not cheating, the snow shots are just pieces of shit, and the back tail is tired.
