Anyone interested in slider lessons should seriously consider The Projects (<a href="http://www.theprojectspark.com" target="_blank">http://www.theprojectspark.com</a>). Pat, Ryan and Robbie do a great job on giving you the right pace and instruction. Very laid back atmosphere. Great sliders. Link is my son John riding at the Projects last week with a little footage form the ProTour sliders at OWC Last year. <BR> <BR><a href="http://www.wakepics.com/view_single.php/JJ-on-SLiders_1139005977_wakeboarding-photo-image-video.html?medid=18193" target="_blank">http://www.wakepics.com/view_single.php/JJ-on-SLiders_1139005977_wakeboarding-photo-image-video.html?medid=18193</a>

Hey Tim, Great shots of John... I know you told me to bring the girls to the projects to get better on the sliders.... Got to find the time...

Holy Cow! Tim, John is ripping up those sliders. Great shots.

John, <BR> <BR>Thanks..... <BR> <BR>He has improved considerably on sliders and I think it has a lot to do with the one on one coaching he is getting. They drop the riders in the water and give advice at the end of the pass. The water is kinda cold right now. I think it makes him work hard to not get dropped. In other words he listens well to coaching.. <BR> <BR>Take nothing away from them....they are good!! <BR> <BR>Tim

Good shots. Where was the shot of the transfer box? It looks like nationals.

Shawn, <BR> <BR>Thanks we are having a great time wakeboarding!!! <BR> <BR>David, <BR> <BR>They put the boxes in a couple of weeks before the Pam Am games (September I think) and you could ride them at OWC before the tourney. It was a cool opportunity. <BR> <BR>Tim

Tim, <BR>Your son, John, is excellant on those slidders in the video, and yes, the Projects do a great job at coaching. My son was coach for the last few summers at the Projects, and now is attending Univ. of Utah, snowboarding. That's where Pat and Ryan are now, enjoying the snow with Benny and putting on a demo at the Salt Lake Boat Show.
