After more than a month of fierce competition, the first-ever China Outdoor Beauties Selection — the 2014 China Outdoor Beauties Selection Event, passionately sponsored by Osprey and aiming to spread the messages “Outdoor is beautiful, Nature is beautiful, and I am beautiful!” — concluded successfully on January 29. The event garnered an enthusiastic response from hundreds of outdoor clubs across various regions in China. Over a hundred outdoor beauties, full of vitality and fashion dreams, shone brightly on stage and shared their joys and pleasures in the outdoors with the audience.
The judging panel for this competition was exceptionally strong. More than ten judges, including Ke Qingfeng, General Manager of "Mountain Wilderness - China Outdoor" magazine, renowned photographer Su Lieqiu, Cai Yingyuan, Editor-in-Chief of Xinqi Outdoor Channel, and Wei Dandan, Deputy Director of the Public Engagement Department at the China Foundation for Poverty Alleviation, evaluated the beauties through multiple rounds with intense judging and strict selection. Following online interactive voting by the public, the top ten beauties stood out and were honored with awards.
Mr. Ma Song, General Manager of the Marketing Department at Osprey, presented awards to the distinguished outdoor beauties. The selected beauties not only received exquisite prizes from Osprey but also had the opportunity to become Osprey’s brand stars and image ambassadors, as well as ambassadors for the “Good Walker” campaign by the China Foundation for Poverty Alleviation!
The competition received widespread coverage from mainstream domestic outdoor media such as Sina and Phoenix, earning high praise from many outdoor beauties and attracting strong attention from all sectors of society. The event not only provided an excellent platform for self-expression for the participants, but also showcased the charm of outdoor sports, conveying healthy and vibrant outdoor values to society, and encouraging more people to understand and actively participate in various outdoor activities.
