big shout out to all the ladies and gents that participated in the Slingshot Art of power clinic.. was a great 2 days and everyone took on the camp with a great attitude.. which showed in the massive level everyone took there riding too over the course.. i had a ball not only helping everyone out but also meeting and riding with them. Met alot of new faces and hope that i helped them out in someway shape or form. All the guys just try and take these skills to the water next time u kite. Have fun and will deff see evryone on the water in the near future.

Cam nice words mate. a big thank you to you and Josh O'Connell for giving up your time and effort in coaching. The format was made really easy with riding double up on Cable. But without you guys and the level of experience and knowledge you presented at the clinic would have made it really suffer, cheers!
A special thanks to Slingshot and Mystic for their huge support this obviously extends to Dave Sorrensen and Andy Blyth for their tiresless efforts in helping with dry drilling, videoing, photography and being everywhere when needed, thanks guys.
A big thanks goes to Bli Bli Ski and Skurf, a awesome place to ride and gain many cross over benefits.
Of course, a absolutely huge thank you to all the riders who dug into their pockets and came with an attitude to learn. This made coaching easy and it was displayed in the transformation on the water. There were to many standouts to mention in this forum but we will be posting photos soon and every rider will get a disc of photos and DVD of their clinic experience.
Again thank you it was a pleasure meeting, riding and helping each and everyone of you achieve steps to reaching your ultimate riding goals.
Cheers, Chris Wardell

Ya! I got 3's off the kicker down!
Super stocked lads,thank you very much.
It would have taken me weeks even months to learn how to hit,spin,pass and land corectly and with your coaching I was able to land them on the first day!
The way the SlingShot coaches were able to look and brake down what you are doing wrong and what needs to be changed was amazzing.These boy's really know their stuff and were so willing and helpfull to pass on their knowledge.
It was the best $100 Ive ever spent! To learn that 3 for me was a reall achievment and something that I never would have done without the SlingShot boys giving me a push.
When is the next one???
