Saw this post on skypilotkiteboarding.com forum. Anyone know anything about this?

Hi everyone,

What better place to be on Canada day weekend, then the USA?

You are all invited to The Gorge to join with myself & rest of the Naish NorthAmerica crew, along with Jon Malmberg (Naish kites design team), Michi Schwager (Naish WS design team) and the Windsurfing & Kiteboarding Legend himself: Robby Naish.
July 1st weekend.

Robby will be in town to help promote his new windsurfing movie, aptly titled: "The Windsurfing Movie," as well as for the annual Gorge Windfest Event. It will be definitely be worth checking out!

We will have both windsurf and kiteboarding demos available with all of the acclaimed Naish gear for you to try for free. Come kite with Robby, try out some new toys and ask us all the questions you can possibly think of.

For those that have never been, The Gorge is a few hours south (just east of Portland) at the town of Hood River. Famous for strong predictable winds, a helpful upwind current and warm temperatures, as well as being a hub for kiteboarding in NorthAmerica, it is a great riding spot for kiters of all levels: from beginners to pro's.

See you all there! It will be a great weekend.

Hey NW'ers,

Yup, will be there helping out as well. Did not know if this was public information yet, so I did not post anything on it.

Big Winds is doing the overall organization, Robby, Michi, Kai, Kyle, and myself will all be around helping out with the event. I am surprised that Big Winds has not done any media blitzing with this. Call the shop for details...

Come on down and meet the Naish Team...

Adios, Bammer

Sorry NWKite!

It was either you guys getting scooped, or me losing my job! No Helix demo in the Gorge as our official launch is not until later in the summer.

Any questions on the 07 Boxer!? I can for sure answer those!

More Cowbell! We need our Maui picture fix. How is your surfing progressing? Had a Hawaii moment on Friday with a monster Gray whale fully breaching at Manzo.
