REELcomp positions itself as the “first core board sport video-sharing site of its kind.” It will begin accepting footage of skateboarding, snowboarding, and surfing.

REELcomp knows that there are many talented die-hard athletes that remain unexposed because of the challenges of becoming noticed in today’s busy industry. That’s why the goal is to create a site completely content based, which will be showcasing new talent and sport progression. The competition gives skaters, snowboarders, and surfers the chance to be seen and rewarded for their skills, almost immediately.

Users can load endless clips of their board sports and starting September 2, 2007, users will vote a new winner twice a month. The winner takes home $1000 cash and secures a spot in the “sweet sixteen” Final Bracket, which will result in a grand prize vacation for a finalist in all three sports.

Finding an interesting niche with significant number of readers is a popular trend now in Internet marketing. REELcomp’s focus on board sports is on the right track. Here’s a video clip of the top surfing video:
