Below are the videos and photos that got the highest scores in last week's contest round. Each of winning participants will receive a TIKKA PLUS² headlamp. We're receiving more and more photo submissions and more and more people are voting. The final vote is going to be tight! We're starting to get more videos as well - a total of five were submitted over a single weekend alone and we are proud to announce five winning videos this week.

The TIKKA² contest is in its 5^th week and we're continuing to receive loads of great submissions.
Below are the five winning entries for the photo catagory and the three winners of the video category. Each will receive a new TIKKA PLUS² headlamp.
