5. Every participant acknowledges and agrees that by entering the Promotion, they are available to participate in the Z Manu World Champs Grand Final in Auckland, New Zealand, on Saturday, 9 March 2024.
6. Each participant’s Manu must be performed safely. Participants will be disqualified from entry into the Promotion if the participant’s Manu includes run ups, props (including bottles and balls), or dress up costumes. Any unsafe Manu practices (for example, doing a Manu from a significant height into shallow water) will disqualify the participant from entering the Promotion. The Promoter reserves the right to disqualify any participant, in its sole and absolute discretion, from the Promotion for any untoward, offensive, aggressive, unsafe, or illegal behaviour in relation to the Promotion, including in video content as well as communication on the social media platforms in connection with the Promotion.
7. After the Entry Period has ended, the Promotor (and organisations related to the Z Manu World Champs such as Quantum Events Limited) will determine a maximum of the top 20 entries (The Top 20). Determination of which participant will qualify in The Top 20 will include consideration of safety, style of Manu, extent of splash, and the family-friendly nature of the Promotion. If there are less than 20 entries into the Promotion by the end of the Entry Period, the Promoter may, at its sole and absolute discretion, extend the Entry Period by a maximum of seven days (Extended Entry Period). For clarity, if there are less than 20 entries into the Promotion by the end of either the Entry Period or the Extended Entry Period, subject to eligibility requirements and clause 6, all entries will qualify for the Showdowns.
8. The Top 20 will go to public vote to determine up to 10 winners (each a Showdown), one Showdown each day starting from 9.00am on Friday, 26 January 2024, who will qualify for the Prize (each a Prize Winner). The public vote process is:
a. Two of the Top 20 entry videos will be randomly selected to go head-to-head across Facebook, Instagram and TikTok;
b. The public will vote on which participant’s video should be a Prize Winner across Facebook, Instagram and TikTok;
c. The Prize Winner will be the participant with the most votes across Facebook, Instagram and TikTok by the end of the day for which it was posted.
9. At the absolute discretion of the Promoter (and organisations related to the Z Manu World Champs such as Quantum Events Limited), the Promoter may elect to select a participant who qualifies for the Showdowns to be a Prize Winner without undertaking the Showdown public vote process.
