SANTI’s anniversary programme has a near-term date for divers who already use its equipment: the Tell Your SANTI Story entry window closes October 25, 2026. Before selecting a photograph, read the full conditions. They contain more precise eligibility and image-use requirements than a short competition announcement.
Use the full rules to check eligibility
The official October 6 announcement describes the anniversary story competition and its special-edition drysuit prize. The full contest rules require participants to own a SANTI Group drysuit. Check that condition rather than assuming that owning any branded accessory is enough.
The rules give the submission deadline as October 25 at 23:59 Polish time, labelled CET. They require both an English-language photo-and-story post on Facebook or Instagram, with the specified tag and hashtag, and the official entry form. One entry is permitted per person. Use SANTI’s own pages for the complete current instructions.
The two-part process is easy to overlook when reading a social post quickly. If you decide to enter, make a checklist from the official instructions and retain the information needed to identify your submission. Do not assume that posting a photograph alone completes the entry.
Owning the suit is different from owning the photograph
The rules require rights to the submitted photograph and valid consent from depicted people. They also grant SANTI a royalty-free promotional and marketing licence without time or territory limits, including modified versions and publication without naming the author. Review those terms before deciding which material to submit.
A photograph saved on your phone may still have been taken by another person. Likewise, a picture of you does not by itself settle the photographer’s rights. Resolve that distinction before choosing an entry. A photograph you are comfortable sharing with friends may also be different from one you wish to make available for a brand’s future promotional use.
A prize announcement is not a retail specification
October 20 coverage reports a direct response from SANTI stating that the anniversary suit was not commercially available when information was supplied on October 15. That is a dated status, rather than confirmation of its availability today.
Readers considering equipment purchases should therefore keep the contest and product research separate. The prize name does not establish a complete retail specification, regional release date or current stock. Check the manufacturer for those details if your interest is the suit rather than the competition.
TRIMIX is not collecting entries or participating in judging. Our English water-sports blog links to primary sources so readers can follow the organizer’s current information themselves. No entry, consent or account registration is made on a reader’s behalf.
Dates and scope: Official announcement: October 6; recent coverage: October 20; dated manufacturer status: October 15; entry deadline: October 25, 2026. Official announcement and rules checked October 24. Later judging, voting and results remain future events.
