Got a friend in town so I can't commit 100%, but whenever I am around feel free to grab me and I will do whatever I can to help.

This event is going to be amazing. Almost all of the best riders in the world will be riding in one of the first formally judged slider contests. Tents and seating will be available for spectators to hand out and watch the show.

Don't miss the chance to watch this event!!!!

We'll be down there on Saturday with the MLK boys.

2nd Wind and MLK will have a chill-out lounge area set up for people to get out of the wind and sun.
We'll have the 2nd Wind Party Trailer set up and LF Party tent as well as some furniture for the loungers.
**If everything runs perfect, we'll have the generator, stereo and fridge with drinks for those seeking the ultimate luxury accommodations.

I have a feeling that this would end up being the sad OG Class of riders and everyone would be forced to look away in pity. But, I'm always up for a challenge to make an ass of myself.

Nice job, awesome event. I was under the impression it was just going to be local riders, I showed up for the finals and thought they were joking when the announcer said Len10 and Hadlow were up next. Wow, what an afternoon!
