Without sounding like a ghastly end-of-round reality tv show, this round one decision process was real tough. There are easily three genuine talents in round oneto take to the final but we had to cull it down to one (not before we managed to toss out some silver and bronze statuettes for other wild talents).
The prizes.
Gold: Qualifies for the Little Weeds final on the GC later in the year (where you'll receive all sorts of good product so don't be spooked you're not getting em here).
Silver: Win a pair of VZ Hoss shades and Nixon Nomadic headphones
Bronze: Win a pair of VZ Hoss shades.

Round two will kick off sometime over the next few days. Your profiles will remain on the site but they'll be inactive. All you've have to do is to adjust your profile (some new text but new photos or clips would work best) and it will be re-activated. If you've finished with a place you can still re-enter the later rounds (sorry, your Stabs will be reset in a few days). If we weren't to receive another entry we could easily go and find all three finalists in here.
Like we said, we're looking for motivated weeds with a different take. And, there are so many little opportunities you don't know about. Surf industry players have been scouring the site. So, if you're a talented photog or surfer or film maker, it's like a Seek site on heat. Likewise, Chic are looking for modelling talent beyond just the finalists. We've also tightened the site and it'll be easier to use next round - how hard is it trying to find a friend! Beyond functionality, there'll be some new prizes we haven't told you about. Thanks for the first round. Let's see what we find when we flick the switch next week. Oh, and we're still waiting on the tee. They are coming. And, you certainly haven't been forgotten...
