hey guys you are more than welcome to use the slider...

in fact were going down to safety bay this comming sunday for a session, providing the wife and daughter is ready on time i'l be there around lunch time...

only things i ask is you help put it up or pack it up, you all use a helmet of some sort (I have got a skate helmet from a bike shop cost $37.95 from bicycle entrepenure ask for dennis and tell him browneee sent ya)

there are a few rules, no fins, helmet required, and your responcible for any injuries you sustain while using the slider.

if you have not seen what it looks like it is 30 feet long, yellow and blue and inflatable with a double rail over the top...

reason for getting one, simple its portable, its fun and may be we can all get together and have a BARBQ on the beach during the day...

thats a hint i'l bring the slider you guys provide the BARBY !

i'l be going the the second carpark down the beach from the main pengoo's carpark, another 100m up the road...

oh yeah tim they are around $1500 USD and about the same in freight to OZ. none in OZ...

0404637147... reply here if your going to come down... also send me a txt message with who you are for future slider day TXT message locations...

If you've never dropped your kite, your not trying hard enough !

Sucide leash's and onshore conditions are a interesting combination !
Broken ribs SUCK !

So Brownee are you still doing the best brand sales rep thing? I guess it is just a coincidence that your going to be at the exact same location on Sunday as the Sandgroper Kite demo yet again! Why am I not surprised? I guess I will see you there.

Hey Andrew
Wouldn't complain too much.
Having Dale & Ryland & the likes playing on a slider is sure to up the number of ppl there to see you show off your new season collection.
Reckon the slider will boost sales as well as kiters
Good luck with it.
CU there.

Well we had our first Slider session of the season and I think it went realy well...

I'd like to thank Alan aka the girl, Scooter aka scott, Ryland and everyone else who helped set up and pack away the slider/kites/flags etc etc etc...

The arvo started out realy slow and underpowered but most went out and groveled around untill the wind strengthed in around 4...

When the wind kicked so did Ryland, Jake, Shannon stent, Correy Brown, Carl Bevo, Andrew Leach & Teresa...

Shannon took the title for first blood when he crashed and split the webbing in between his fingures on something...

All the boyz hit the slider and put on an awsome show for the rest of us that were too stuffed from the session of groveling around earlyer...

In my opinion Jake edged out Ryland for the first slider session when he started throwing down handle passes off the end of the slider...

The days ended with most of us having a beer and a chat in the carpark. If only the sunshine was out, we all could have settled back for a few more in the park...

All in all I had an excellent afternoon of kiting and watching and I hope you all did too, lets do it again real soon, I'l post details of our next session on the forum...

Nice work Browneee, glad the wind stepped up. Thanks to the guys for grabbing my gear and particularly the 2 guys for their first aid skills.
Ended up splitting the webbing between my 2 middle fingers when they went either side of the pvc. So i have 5 stitches and a broken bone in the top of my hand but its all good. Cheers!
