Surf Expo 2010....Who's going?
 
Just realized on our cross country trip we're going to be in Florida on the 10th of September. Thats the same day Surf Expo starts! So we decided to change up our trip itinerary a little bit so we can attend! Anybody else going to be there on the 10th! Also where should we drop the boat in the water by Orlando for a little wakeboarding fun?

The 10th is a Friday sooo ... We'll prolly be around for Expo that weekend.

Drop in Clear, everybody should ride there at some point in their wakeboard career... and you'll prolly see some sick riders out taking sets as well.

I wiil be there for sure...

dont you need like a special pass to go to surf expo. Or is it pretty much open to the public with like an entree fee?

eccpaint 08-23-2010 7:31 PM

NOT open to the public. You need to be invited / own or work for a shop or manufacturer and you have to be 16 ot older, although I have seen that rule bent a little.

mobv 08-23-2010 7:54 PM

The 16 year rule can only be modified with approval of one of the companies who have goods on display. The companies are there to show their goods to potential shop owners/buyers. They don't want lots of people in just looking, distracting from the "business" going on.

"Business"....you mean industry party. Actually ASR is the industry party and least Surf Expo has some semblance of "business".

I will be there went for the first time last year..and yes they are pretty strick about who gets in. Its only for people in the bizz. and you have tobe registered ahead of time. They dont let you bring in cameras either. we got a small one in last time but my budy had a nice camera and they made him take it back to the car. Good luck getting in.

ummm getting into surf expo isn't that difficult. you only have to show proof of working in some sort of industry related shop with a business card and it's not just surf, skate and wake, it's clothing, sunglasses etc so pre register with whatever creative name you want, go over to kinkos, print out a business card and you are in. my dad owns optical stores so we just register under that. expo really isn't that great unless one of the companies is giving out free booze like ronix did before. it's the parties at night that are sick, but I cant remember if you need your badge for them. i would imagine not. also if you can only get two passes, ie a guest and employee pass and have 3 people, 2 of you go in and then one of you come back up the esclalator with the other pass.
all the passes do is say your name and age.

Will be there. Come check out the Ten-80 booth. Party Sat. night is dope. I think all you have to do is sign up for it somewhere during expo, and they give you wristbands for it then.

expo is great if you have friends that go and like seeing the new product in person.
