Just a reminder that the Minneapolis Boat Show will be running from January 20-24, 2010. Right now most major inboards will be represented and there will be a slide jam by step up productions. We are working on getting either JD Webb or Eric Ruck in the house, Shane Bonifay is a maybe too. I'll try to keep you posted as things become definative!!! <img src="http://www.wakeworld.com/MB/Discus/messages/3183/752132.jpg" alt="Upload">

See you there Corey.

I will be there, I look forward to it every year. I heard that it is scaled back a lot though. Like 2/3 the space will be used this year. That doesnt say a whole lot because the place is huge and it sould like most of the inboards will be there, at least the 3 major ones that I know of.

The guys from Minnetonka Marine who sell a few Tige's a year will not be there. Talked to one of their sales guys a few weeks ago. He said something about some boat "parade" or something that they were going to do this year. <BR> <BR>I'm sure the economy will change the boat show as it has everything this year.

Yes, much smaller than years past but in a way its just weeding out some of the duplicates. From what I hear MasterCraft, Malibu, Correct Craft, Supra and Moomba will be there. <BR> <BR>We're gonna have 11 boats again this year as well as the pro shop. I'm not sure what the other guys are bringing but it should be a good watersports show.

Never miss it. <BR> <BR>Don, when are you planning on going. We should hook up. BTW, got some big news to tell you.

I will be there one of the days

Heard you unloaded the Epic Chad. <BR> <BR>Friend of a friend bought it. Congrats on getting out of it. I hope to take a few sets on it this summer.

Chad, Have no plans as of yet. Still waiting for Liz's schedule to be released for Jan so we can figure it out. Call me and tell me the news, I cant wait for that stuff lol

Free tickets Corey? <IMG SRC="http://www.wakeworld.com/MB/Discus/clipart/happy.gif" ALT=":-)" BORDER=0>

I'll be there! Any idea what day you'll be there Chad?

Hey Mox, I'll keep my eyes peeled for any tix. As of right now they are being pretty stingy with them.

Yep, sold the Epic. Gonna miss her, but I'm looking forward to another boatless season again:-) <BR> <BR>Don and Charlie, I can hook you guys up with free tix. Just let me know if you want 'em. (Sorry gang, only have two extra passes.) <BR> <BR>I usually go Thursday or Friday, but I'm open. The weekends are typically so busy that you never get the opportunity to hang around Corey and annoy him:-P

Only annoyed that you can drink beer and I can't!

Corey you drink beer the entire show anyways! what are you talking about???

When I get Liz's schedule, I can narrow it down, but we usually get lunch in the downtown area and go to the show until after rush hour. I will let you know what day we plan to attend Chad, thanks for the offer <IMG SRC="http://www.wakeworld.com/MB/Discus/clipart/happy.gif" ALT=":-)" BORDER=0>

step up productions is sick!but it sucks because the place that holds it in nashville wont let em come down(probably cause of price issues).

Looks like Eric Ruck, Josh Palma and Adam Errington will be at the jam. We're hoping to get one more pro yet, I'll let you know if we do.

Just heard that Kevin Henshaw got a flight out to good ol' MSP as well! Henny will be pressing the crap out of the rails also!

What is with this rail jam? I have never heard of that before at a show. Where is it and what day and times?

They havent listed the times yet but they'll be listed at <a href="http://www.minneapolisboatshow.com/attendees/features/features.aspx?featureId=1504" target="_blank">http://www.minneapolisboatshow.com/attendees/features/features.aspx?featureId=1504</a>

How deep is the pool?? Maybe you guys could have a hydrofoil demo too!

Ha ha, yeah I don't think the pool will be deep enough for foiling they'd need a bass tank for something like that!

Charlie, you'll just have to bring your foil with the vertically challenged t-bar. <BR> <BR><img src="http://www.wakeworld.com/MB/Discus/messages/3183/754530.jpg" alt="Upload">

LOL....Nice! I wonder if a flip would be possible with a 12" T-bar??

you could so ride rails on a foil

Looks like MN's own Eric Anderson is going to be representing Slingshot for the slide jam!!!

sweetness...Eric kills it on the rails!
