Book Blast Winners

The winners have been chosen!

1st Place - Choice of hat or beanie, and standard t-shirt + stickers
Winner: Davis Richards
Book: The Sray Shopping Carts of Eastern North America

NWR's Take: Davis sent in multiple books that were in the running. We ended up buying three of his submissions. This book was spot on for our type of humor.

More covers will be posted over on the Northwest Riders | The Movement Facebook Group Page

Head over to NorthwestRiders.com for more.

March Contest - Book Blast

Alright folks...new contest. Those of you that know us at Northwest Riders have probably seen our ongoing collection of books that have no clear reason for being on someone's shelf. We came across some real beauties the other day and decided it was worth a giveaway or two if the NWR faithful could come up with some equally fantastic covers.

So here is the gist of this contest:

You come up with the best book cover as judged by us here at Northwest Riders Clothing Co. and we give you some free gear. The only rule is that you can't send in anything profane or inappropriate. If you have to ask, it probably is not appropriate...so don't send it. Any duplicate entries...we will count the first submitted and disqualify the second. We will post them up at northwestriders.com as we get them.

The Twist:

We are looking to ADD to our ongoing collection. So...we are grading on two points. The best cover is 50% of the judging score and the price of the book (lower the better) is the other 50% of the judging. Bonus points if you buy the book and bring it to us or send it in to our office.

PRIZES:

1st Place - Choice of hat or beanie, and standard t-shirt + stickers
2nd Place - Choice of beanie or standard t-shirt + stickers
3rd Place - NWR sticker pack

The contest will go on until we get bored of it or the submissions become lame. Be creative, have some fun with it, and send as many entries as you want.

Instructions:

• Submit cover image in .jpeg format to *(nwrclothing@gmail.com)*
• Include you name, email, phone, and hat/tee size
• Include a link to where we can get the book (with a price)
  
• We will get in touch with you at the end.
• We reserve the right to change or add to this as we go...

Good Luck!

NWR Skimboards in February

Tomahawk Photography

Northwest Riders Tony Saddler and Isaac Thomas went out last Friday for a skim. According to Thomas, the weather was surprisingly warm which made for an awesome day at the beach. Their friend and inspiring photographer Rhys came out for the first time to see what skimboarding was all about and was able to shoot some pictures.
