The slider looks like a lot of fun and should be great for riders and photos on friday. Please keep it out of the contest area on Saturday as it is not going to be a part of the contest format.

Thanks,
Gary


It's not part of the contest format? From what I understand it is...

EDIT: Oh, hehe, you're the organizer, guess the slider isn't part of the format. I think hitting the slider as part of your run should count.

the slider was a last minute request, so possibly in the future, a slider discipline could be added to the exhibition.
Regardless, Friday it will be setup and it should be a fun thing to watch. or just watch the peeps eating it. We'll most likely pull it out of the water at the end of the day. If there is demand, we can set it up on the water again on Sunday.

I'll deliver by late friday morning.

Sounds good Stringy. We can put floats on the lines to the anchors, then all we will have to do is float it back out and hook it up.

Forrest and all the slider project guys, lets see how it goes this year and then evaluate the effectiveness of a slider in Stevenson. This is a start.....

Phil,

You can get one of those big checks next year when you are healthy and place in the top 3.
