So stoked for this! Going to be great to have all 3 brands there! Best will have our RV Tour swinging by so there will be shade, drinks, and plenty of gear to shred. Hope to see everyone out there!

Very stoked for this weekend as well and that we have been able to get all 3 brands together for the one demo - promises to be a great opportunity for people to try out a great variety of gear!

Ocean Rodeo will be on hand with a full assortment of our products... looking forward to seeing everyone and to hanging with the Slingshot and Best boys and girls!

Since it is a free event, I think it is fine to promote it on the main forum.
I don't know about Rufus, but the wind did finally come up at the HR sand bar late in the afternoon today. I counted roughly 25 kites out between 4pm and 6pm ranging from 12M to 17M (SS Turbines). Forecast is for rain showers in HR on Sunday, but it could be less cloudy with better wind out at Rufus tomorrow (I'm hoping).

Anytime a shop wants to get three brands together, feed and beer you all weekend and try out all the gear for free...I say POST AWAY! Very Happy

Thanks to all the sponsors, especially Brave Dave and the mobile Slingshot party machine. We had a blast chillin' in the heat on Saturday...checking out the gear, and my 8 year old was SUP carp chasing with a vengeance.

Come on!!


Are you freaking kidding me? Your complaining about a free kick ass demo event with free kites, beer and food to play? Dude rachet11 you need to change your name to rachetdouchebag!

What kind of unhappy grumpy prick will complain about a free demo post and why hasn't anyone else tore this dude up yet? How is this tolerated?
