This was one of the best demos I've ever attended. So chill and fun with plenty of gear and quality free beer! Very grateful to John and his wife (sorry, didn't catch her name) for working hard to take care of us!
Also my first day riding Stevenson, incredible spot!

I agree, best demo ever!
Lisa and Jon did a great job getting people out on all the new Slingshot gear.
I think Jon launched well over 30 kites yesterday, might be a new Stevenson record.

Yes, Stevenson is a beautiful place to kite. I'm disappointed that I wasn't able to make it out as I love trying the latest and greatest... and of course who doesn't love FREE BEER?.
Jon and Lisa did a demo out at Sauvies Island last year. Their friendliness and stoke couldn't be more refreshing.
Slingshot has some awesome people backing them.
Good winds, and a happy and safe Labor Day weekend to all.

It's awesome to read the feedback about Jon and Lisa and the success of the demo day. They are the most stoked riders you'll ever meet who are always selfless with their time to help others get on the water.
I have no idea how the "brand ambassador" thing works but kudos to Slingshot for always identifying and aligning with great people.

Thank you for all the kind words and support ! Lisa & I love representing Slingshot and helping stoke people out. We need to share the thanks with Racheal Callahan / Grom Gormley for encouraging us to do this event and for providing Stoke & music . Big shout out to Kevin at Backwoods Brewery for supplying the beer . It was a pleasure to get people on the new Slingshot gear . We didn't get to kite so we treated ourselves to a day at the coast today . If you missed the event and would like to try any of the new Slingshot gear send me a message and we will make arrangements . And stay tuned for a Rooster Rock demo day !! Can you say slongs and SST in the same sentence ?
