Why waste valuable footage on YouTube gapers who actually think Lonelygirl15 is titillating? Enter your vids in our first annual contest and let real skiers vote on the best.

The Contest: Skiing Magazine readers everywhere send 30-second clips in QuickTime format (.mov) of themselves and their homies charging through neck-deep powder, throwing corkscrews in the park, or biffing hard under the lift. The submissions flood SkiNet.com/VideoContest. Our judges select 10 finalists, awarding points for style, creativity, and technical savvy. Then readers vote online for the top flick.

The Prizes: The top three videographers will each receive either a brand-new Salomon 900 hoody or a Salomon Snowtri jacket. You have to stay warm filming, don't you?
