** NEW Photos From Party With The Pros!! **

[ricki]

They picked a great night for the party


The new retail shop was in full operation showing off lots of kiteboarding, windsurfing, wetsuit, indoboard and other fun stuff. That is Dan at the counter helping Bruno. Dan came all the way down from OBX to run the Adventure Sports Store.




The show floor had been converted into a nightclub of sorts complete with fog machine, black & strobe lights, drink and food areas, a dance platform complete with pole?


Elliot Leboe hangs with Clarissa and Kent. Elliot has been shooting some hot kiting videography all over for the Upcoming Metropolis II video and other projects.


Susi Mai and Todd. Todd told me about a rescue he pulled off a while back, now destined for the Way To Go forum.


Neil and Nicci. Neil Hutchenson brought down some new Slingshot gear to show off during the party.



There was a full house with about 150 people showing up for the party


Andre Phillip, Jessie and Mike


Susi sporting some new Red Bull jewelry


Damien spells Dan at the register as Julie Simsar looks on from the flat screen




Sharon, Katrina and Ann


Todd and Ann go at foosball


Clarissa in the mist. Photography in the fog was a bit dodgy. I later learned that the machine puts out some oil that makes walking close to it pretty tricky.


Lonny and Katrina, Jessie in the back


Mike of The Kitehouse and friend


This is what happens when you use rude gestures? Actually, Nick suffered a nasty spiral fracture when his kite leash wrapped around his finger in a handle pass gone wrong. Operation is coming up, good luck.




Kent, being the bashful guy that he is arranged for an ecdysis demonstration to help fill out the evening's entertainment. He actually braved some of the nether dens of nighttime Miami on a talent search with Garry Menk and Jon Modica. Looks like they were successful.


Here she is,Sam, warming up in Cabrinha mufti


The folks come down front for the show




More comfy now






Although the theme was stripping, not all that much came off, no more than you might see at the beach. We're not talking SoBe either!


Kent steps up and assumes the position







Heidi, Nicci and Ali move into it




Alex and Chris go for equal time on stage. Neil kept trying to put together a follow up act. Wonder if it ever came together?


Kent just announced he is throwing his hat in the ring for the presidential election, the crowd goes wild and Jessie starts a drive for the necessary green.

Thanks to all the folks that worked hard to make the party a reality. Sure was fun!
