Go ahead and type #stabfullframe into your Instagram search bar, you’ll be greeted with a blue-hued kaleidoscope of posts ranging from abstract textures, dreamy lineups, speed blurs to straight-up high performance action. There are some seriously special moments woven into that 43k-strong feed. Recently, in partnership with our pals at O’Neill, Developing Legends and Turtle Bay Resort, we kicked off a rather enticing competition with a trip to Hawaii on the table for one talented lensman or woman. All they had to do was post a scroll-arresting image, apply the appropriate tags and they were in the running.

We’ll be announcing the winner of the major event this Friday, the 9th of December. Continue to tag your shots #stabfullframe and @oneillusa to feature in our exclusive gallery and compete for the monthly prize pack from O’Neill.
