Summer of Send Giveaway – Official Terms & Conditions
The Promoter
The promoter is Pit Viper Australia Pty Ltd (ABN 81 661 423 892), Level 32, 25 Martin Place, Sydney NSW 2000 Australia (referred to as “The Send Master” or “the Promoter”).
Eligibility (Don’t Be a Minor)
Entry is open to legal residents of Australia aged 18 years or older at the time of entry. If you’re under 18, that’s a hard no. Come back when you’re older and your parents can’t confiscate the sunglasses.
Employees of the Promoter and its partner brands (including Sea-Doo Australia, Yakima Australia and Dritimes), their immediate families, and anyone professionally connected to running this promotion are ineligible to win.
The Entry Period
Summer of Send runs from 5 November 2026 to 22 November 2026. Entries open at 12:01 AM AEDT on 5 November 2026 and close at 11:59 PM AEDT on 22 November 2026.
Miss the window and you’ve missed the send. There’s always next summer.
How to Enter (The One-Sentence Thing)
Head to pitviper.au/pages/summer-of-send and finish this simple sentence: “My perfect Summer of Send looks like…”
That’s it. No essays, no 2,000-word odes to your love of jet skis. One sentence, straight from the heart (or wherever your best ideas come from).
Fill in your name, email and phone number so we can actually reach you if you win. Incomplete entries get tossed into the digital abyss. Limit of one (1) entry per person.
No purchase necessary: you don’t need to buy a thing to enter. It won’t improve your chances, but it will make us like you a little more.
The Prize (The Good Stuff)
The total prize pool is valued at AU$31,230 (RRP, incl. GST), split across three winners.
First Prize (one (1) winner), valued at up to AU$19,975

Winner Selection (This Is a Game of Skill, Not Luck)
This is not a raffle and there is no random draw. Every entry is read and judged on merit by a Judging Panel of at least two (2) Pit Viper Australia employees, against three criteria: originality, personal connection to the brand, and general enthusiasm. No coin flips, no chance element, no luck required. Every entry is read and judged by real humans. Just good ol’ fashioned sentences.
Judging will take place on or before Tuesday 24 November 2026 at Pit Viper Australia HQ. If two entries are genuinely neck-and-neck, the Judging Panel breaks the tie by judging them again against the same criteria, never by chance.
The Judging Panel’s decision is final. We won’t be entering into a debate about it, even if your sentence was objectively a banger.
Winner Notification & Publication
Winners will be contacted by phone and email within two (2) business days of judging.
Answer your phone: we’ll call from a designated number and follow up by email, but the call is more fun.
Winners’ names and, where required, their state or territory, may be published on the Promoter’s website and social media platforms.
If You Ghost Us
If a winner can’t be reached, doesn’t respond within three (3) days of being contacted, or is disqualified, we don’t run a second draw, because there wasn’t a first one. Instead, the Judging Panel moves to the next most meritorious entry, and that person becomes the winner.
Prize Delivery & Conditions
-
Prizes are non-transferable, non-exchangeable and can’t be redeemed for cash or store credit, except at the Promoter’s sole discretion.
-
Except for the Sea-Doo (see “The Sea-Doo Bit” below) and the Yakima prize (fulfilled by Yakima Australia), we’ll arrange delivery of prize items to the winner’s residential address in Australia within 28 days of eligibility being confirmed, at no cost to the winner.
-
If any prize component becomes unavailable for reasons outside our control, we’ll substitute it with something of equal or greater value.
-
The Sea-Doo doesn’t come with jet-ski lessons, and the cooler display doesn’t come with refreshing beverages.
The Sea-Doo Bit (Please Read This One)
You want the Sea-Doo? Read the rules:
- The Sea-Doo will be supplied through JSW Powersports, 3 Ereton Drive, Arundel QLD 4214. JSW Powersports will contact the First Prize winner to arrange the handover.
- The winner must collect the Sea-Doo from JSW Powersports in Arundel within thirty (30) days of being notified, or arrange and pay for its transport from there within that time.
- The Sea-Doo prize does not include registration, a trailer, or any transport, freight or shipping costs. These are all the winner’s responsibility.
- The prize also doesn’t include insurance, fuel, safety equipment, or the personal watercraft licence needed to operate it legally in your state or territory. Any travel costs to get to Arundel aren’t covered either.
The Yakima Bit (Please Read This One Too)
A few extra rules for the Yakima prize.
-
Prize supplied by Yakima and is subject to stock availability, vehicle fitment, product compatibility, applicable vehicle and roof load limits and Yakima's reasonable safety requirements. Yakima will work with the winner to identify suitable products. A winner is not entitled to receive cash or a credit for any unused portion of the AUD $4500 maximum value.
-
Yakima will cover reasonable standard shipping within Australia or make the prize available for collection at no cost from Yakima or a suitable authorised Yakima dealer. If the winner requests a delivery method or location that Yakima reasonably considers impractical or disproportionately expensive, the winner may choose the no-cost collection option or pay the additional cost of their preferred delivery arrangement. Delivery outside Australia is not included.
- The winner must confirm their selection within sixty (60) days of being contacted by Yakima Australia, or the Yakima component of the prize is forfeited.
- A prize is not transferable or redeemable for cash. If a selected product becomes unavailable for reasons beyond Yakima's reasonable control, Yakima may offer a substitute of equal or greater value. Any substitution will be made in accordance with applicable law, including obtaining the winner's written agreement where required.
Privacy & Marketing (The Legal Bit)
By entering, you consent to us collecting your personal information to run this promotion, verify eligibility, contact winners and fulfil prizes. We may share it with our collaborating brands (Sea-Doo Australia, Yakima Australia and Dritimes) for those same purposes. If you tick the box, they may also use it to send you their own marketing.
You can opt out of marketing at any time via the unsubscribe link in our messages. Your data is otherwise handled in line with our Privacy Policy.
The Boring But Important Bits
Nothing here limits any guarantee or right you have under the Australian Consumer Law that can’t legally be excluded.
Except where the law says we can’t, the Promoter isn’t liable for any loss, damage or injury arising from entering or from using a prize, within whatever limits the law allows.
We can amend these Terms, or suspend or cancel the promotion, if something outside our control messes with it (technical failure, force majeure, that sort of thing), subject to any regulator’s directions.
This promotion isn’t sponsored, endorsed or run by any website or social media platform. Direct any questions to us, not them.
These Terms are governed by the laws of New South Wales, Australia.
