Oh yeah, how can I forget the Lunacy 129?!

That will be out for demo as well.

If you forget the Lunacy, you are soooo going to regret it.
Plus, you might make Trevor shed a tear. If you do bring it, I think Trevor will likely ride it off into the distance with one of the REV demos Wink

Pray for wind on Thurs!

BTW - If there are any of you who are good at pumping up kites, we could use a little bit of help getting these REV and T2 kites pumped up at noon time.
If you can help, please track down Amery, Shy or Matt (aka Suds) to help them pump up some kites.

Amery is dropping off the 08 demo boards that we will be trying to get all strapped up tonight .

I'll be sure to bring down some beer and the hand crank blender.

Thanks
Pepi

Heck, the kites can be pumped in a jiffy! They are Slingy, last I checked you only have to put the air in at one place Very Happy Seriously, not being on SS for two years makes me miss the one-pump..... Oh and you gotta love the hand crank!!! I told Matt I'll be down to help out.

The red board is a 2007 Fuse that Amery was riding strapless.

The REV demo totally kicked ass. You know things are going well when :
1) you have customers waiting at the front door of your store wanting to steal your reps demo boards before you can get them even strapped up.
2) you arrive at the Sandbar at 3pm to find a line of 12+ people standing next to Amery waiting for the next ride on a REV kite, and having to literally holler at people to return the kites after extended demo runs.

MISSING DEMO BOARD
BTW - Amery is missing a 2007 FUSE board w/straps that was not properly returned during the demo yesterday.
If anyone finds a demo FUSE board with Amery's name or Slingshot demo written on the deck, please call Slingshot, 2nd Wind Sports or drop off at either location.

Thanks to Amery, Shy, Paul, Mira, Jeannette and the rest of the Slingshot crew for coming out to make this demo happen.
Also thanks to the PDX crew for helping to strap up the demos and pump up kites.

We'll have to do this more often in the future!
