So, the first Carry Awards are done and dusted, finalists announced, winners decided. Dreams both crushed and realised in the same day (well, we like to think so 
). Feedback has been pretty good so far and we’re happy to know that all of you are amped on it. We’re already tweaking and planning for the next instalment…
One constant request was the breakdown of the winners, etc. So what we’ve got for you today is the Top 3 for each category. We didn’t want to break it completely down, figured we’d keep it Olympic style with the podium finishes.
