Skaters can upload videos and win a $1200 Canon HD video camera, and voters can win skate decks.

Los Angeles, CA – éS and the éS Game of SKATE are calling you out. They know who you are. You’re the kid who is always filming or shooting photos of his friends at the local spot. You’re the kid who always keeps the local scene on everyone’s radar. You want a break in life and the chance to go on the road trip of a lifetime with a van full of like-minded skateboarders and maybe, just maybe, getting your foot in the door at a dream job in California. They know you’re out there. And they want you to enlist!

It’s the éS Game of SKATE Internship of a Lifetime contest! They are going to find three (3) of the best-qualified candidates to come along on the Official 2009 éS Game of SKATE tour and join them in making some skateboarding history. They need three skaters who fall into one of the following categories:

* An up-and-coming skateboard filmer with a camera and the best eye for composition since French Fred and the editing touch of Jon Miner and Mike Manzoori.
* An aspiring skateboard photographer.
* A writer/blogger who can weave words into paragraphs that leave us wishing we were reading a novel, not just the latest tour story of life on the road.
