Weve seen the edit, and its banger. Id say hes got it in the bag, but the real question is what does a member of 4bi9 spend copius amounts of cash on other than Kratom?
You can't even compare the two. The Shredsauce comp took no real skill or motivation. Whereas creating a banger colab edit means you actually have to ski and be good at real skiing...and why would you want to do that when you can sit at your computer and press buttons?
I saw an interview a few years back with Goon when he won all those rail jams and they were like "So you won over 100gs in rail jams this year, what'd you do with the money?" and he said "Idk mostly spent it on weed and candy haha."
Well considering the film aspect of the entries is just as important as the skiing side I think that Dale will not be receiving the full 100,000 dollar prize.
With that being said I'm assuming the winners will use the money to live off of for a bit. It's not as if winning the contest has supplied them with enough money to live comfortable with for a long period of time.
Considering that the final voting will be by TGR (big mountain biased) , and the final 20 contestants themselves (big mountain/backcountry biased) I seriously doubt that dale will win.
Because of all the tax deductions you get to take against contest prize income? I mean not that I know much about US tax, why would the effective rate be significantly lower?
