| Just got back from Sauvies... Pretty much no wind. I put up the B3 and fucked around on the beach with Tim and Jeff, that's all. |

Man that sucks. When I bought the firestarter from them I specifically asked for a black one, and in the mail I get a white one even though on the package it says black. I called up Evan and he sent me another one...again white. I had to leave for Baja so just kept the white one, and finally got a black one after breaking my white one. They've been relocating to a new spot recently, but that started well over a month ago so not sure if that's causing confusion on their end anymore. Besides that's no excuse to send out the wrong harness. That said Evan is a super chill guy who tries to help everyone out so hopefully this unpleasant mistake will get resolved quickly. Give him a call if you can and keep at it. |

Yea, Evan's super cool, that's why I'm still willing to work with them. I called him today and he said that he's in Puerto Rico right now, so his guys are the ones in charge of shipping right now. Apparently he had them double check this last one, but they probably didn't. He's got a third one on the way out right now though so we'll see... Might come this weekend when no one is home in C-town.  |

Haha, yeah, he offered to take my shipping off as well, but then forgot. I just let it slide since I didn't want to overload the system and got to demo their board for free for a couple days.
Good luck with the harness. Let's hope the third time's the charm. Otherwise you're gonna have to kick some ass. |

Hey Spike. Feel free to use me as a resource for any questions on the Slingshot gear. PM me if you need. More than happy to help on the beach or wherever.
There's also the Slingshot Rider Hotline 1 877 775 4832
Sauvies might go tomorrow. I think I'll be there if it goes!
