All Hail the Bail

Your Heaviest Wipeout Could Win You A Board

Everyone who has ever set foot on a FlowBarrel® or FlowRider® has experienced a bail. That split second when things veer completely out of control and you surrender to the forces of inertia and gravity. Your feet go up, your head goes down and against all odds, you manage to flip completely upside down before shooting over the back of the wave in a spray of foam. Sometimes they're funny, sometimes they're scary but they're always memorable.

It happens to beginners, it happens to novices, it happens to pros. It happens to bodyboarders and flowboarders, during competitions and when you're free riding. And because it happens to everyone, we thought we'd make it our first global Facebook competition.

To enter, join the Wave House Facebook Fan Page, upload your best wipeout photo or video and tag yourself in it. We'll be scanning for the best entries as judged by the fans, riders and Wave House staff. At the end of the competition period, a final decision will be made and the winner will receive a bodyboard or flowboard from Wave House.

If you've got a great bail photo or video, share it with us. If you haven't got one, take a camera with you next time you ride. Who knows, you might capture a moment that could win you a sick new shredstick. At the very least you'll have a few visual aids to accompany those memories.

The photo or video can be taken on any FlowRider or FlowBarrel.
You cannot submit images you don't have the rights to. (IE: you need to have the permission of the subject and the photographer/videographer).
Fraudulent entries will be removed and disqualified.
The Judges' decision is final and a decision is at the discretion of the Judging panel.
Entries after the closing date will not be accepted for submission.
You can enter as many times as you like, but multiple entries will be considered independently. The same goes for videoclips and video montages.
You must be a Wave House Facebook fan page member to qualify.
The rider tagged in the photo or video will receive the prize.
Entries open Immediately and will close April 4th.
