Weather pending, this Thursday 7/20:

Demo the new Slingshot Link at Sauvie Island.

If the wind shows up, so does the beer.

Check this post later to confirm the Slingshot crew is heading out.

A truck load full of brand spanking new kite gear. Reminds me of a just say no to drugs video I saw in HS...

The dealer gives you the fist taste for free, then he gets you hooked......

NateDogg · Thu Jul 20, 06 11:49 am **Your local supplier...**

Speaking of getting hooked, All Surf Industry has got your supply! We will be taking preorders for the first shipment of Links following the demo at Kite Night tonight. Sizes are going to be limited for this shipment, so orders will be first come first serve. Just holla at me on the beach to get all the info on getting on the list.

This is gonna be a killer opportunity to try before you buy, drink some beers and session the shit outta Sauvies. Hope to see everyone there! For the newbs and lurkers out there, we'll also have the ASI trainer kites up for some free trainer lessons, so come on out, enjoy the sun and get stoked.

If I were there Nate, I'd definately be on one of those trainer kites!

No JNETTE... Sad

Glad to see there's some wind for you guys out there!

Best I've seen on the sensor this year thus far... but maybe I missed something? Well back to the "studying", bleh!

Thanks to everyone who participated, assisted(Dave Smith, Cheyne Swick, So-Cal, JNette, Bling Bling Carl) and rode. A little funky wind at times, but overall a killer Sauvies day.
