Our second annual C1RCA Store Wars contest has now come to a close.
Once again, we pitted the best shops across Canada in a video battle for their
chance to win bragging rights and…
- $10,000 in
electronics equipment to be spent as they see fit
- C1RCA x
'Your Shop' custom shoe
- Push.ca
Shop video profile and free online shop ad campaign
- Concrete
Skateboarding editorial and C1RCA Store Wars ad featuring the winning shop
Needless to
say, our judges faced quite the challenge this year. With C1RCA retailers producing
their best entries to date, it was not until all the scores were in did Universe
Boardshop and filmer Ben Lachance take home the coveted title of 2011 C1RCA
Store Wars Champion.
Yet, every
contest is not without its notable mentions. Last week we posted a series of
videos that caught our eye in the following categories. These shops embody the
spirit of each category and serve as a great guideline for next year’s
entrants.
Best Skating
Best Editing
Best Use Of Social Media
Overall Impact
Best Creativity
Readers Poll Winners
Last but not
least, we would like to tip our hat to all those shops that competed. Showcasing
the finest in Canadian skating, we cannot wait to see these 18 back in the ring
next year going head to head in C1RCA Store Wars 2012.
