Default Irony

I find it funny that WSW is selling Best now. As most of you seasoned guys know, Randy use to promote Slingshot for WSW through his lessons and probably was the best word of mouth advertising for WSW. I find it ironic that when Randy decided to Rep. Best, that Steve at WSW flipped and cut all ties with Randy. Now WSW is going to sell Best? See the irony?

Randy has spent just about 7 days a week for the last several months (wind or no wind) beating the sand and getting his little operation going. I think WSW should have tried to discuss their decision with him, just like Randy did when he made his decision. They have known him for years. Big or small, Randy is still a local kite shop. I’ve read and also listened to the reps at WSW say, “support your local shop.” Maybe its time to practice what is preached?

This is not at all a stab at Steve O or John. They are both very cool guys.
