This is the BIG Slingshot Demo everyone, come on out for the weekend of June 12-14. Ruben Lenten will be in town showing what makes him one of the worlds top and most insane riders with a possible very special guest. The Slingshot Crew will have all the latest SS kites and boards out for you to try. We'll be on hand to get all your questions answered and we'll have ski water support to keep everyone safe and having fun!

Live2Kite will be out under the Mystic Tent showing all the latest Mystic gear including the new Lenten line of Mystic gear.

Come out for the weekend, after the riding's done, there's still much more for everyone! Famous BBQ by Maui Mike, video projection by Slawek if he's available, followed by sound, lighting and music by DJ Ollie G.

When I found out about this SS Demo 'answerback' I was knocked into the back seat. Greg and the Team just hit one out of the park and now Ollie is challenging them with another 4 color invite to a SS Demo? And now he announces that 4th of July is canceled?

Sure, Ollie can try to pull this off, he's done it before, but lets see what LMG does, I don't think Greg will take it lying down. He's got a huge camper. Though, I uh, guess a challenge is a challenge, and it seems that Ollie's challenge to Greg is really about 'respect'.

Well, I just don't see how Ollie thinks he can just go on vacation and then show up and cancel 4th of July and challenge Greg too, but I guess he is doing it and pulling out all the tricks.

What will Greg will do this time HAHAHAHA? At the last event he was making cappuccinos for kiters, Ollie is talking up hotdogs...

I'm a lover not a fighter, but if Ollie wants WAR.. :twisted: :twisted: I'm cancelling Winter!!! :o :o (last winter that is) :wink:

Then- (at the event of the YEAR!) :dance: :-" :obscene-drinkingdrunk:
I'm gonna try to blast Len-10 and his mates ( one could be 5 or 6 time world champion Hadlow) out of the water with a SICK new Kicker, still under construction.

Looking forward to demoing the newest toys,
L.M.G.

Paul,

You have the humor! :P
Nah, we're all in this together, I just wasn't around for the last one. This one is a joint effort with Slingshot, Bay Area Kiteboarding and the local Slingshot Crew together as one! :auto-camptrailer: :auto-camptrailer:

Well, Paul, the answer is in the question itself, who's your Daddy?

Nice video.... 8-)

Well, no harm in bumping the event up a couple weeks. The two dates are so close together you know, and with a Maui Mike BBQ, Lenten visiting, and more to come and be announced, it's just good timing.

But, if anyone else wants to set the stage for July 4, with BBQ, kegs, and setup power, sound, lights, FX, etc. I'll come in and play... that would be awesome!
