Norther cali boat show (pleasanton fairgrounds)

who all is goin? i am probably goin to go on saturday ( Jan. 29th or Feb. 5th )The dates are january 28 - febuary 6th) For more info vist www.ncma.com maybe i can meet some of yah there!

I,ll be there on one of the weekend days. most likely on a Sat.

You guy's think it would be worth the drive from the sac area to hit up that show?

i'll be working in one of the booths during the weekends.

and yeah, i think its worth the trip. its a pretty big show.

I'll be reppin' Ski World and CWB the 2cd weekend (after I get back from riding in Florida) . I would like to meet some new people.

I'll be heading over there during a weekday to beat the crowds. I work across the street now, got two weeks of lunch breaks to drool....

We are probably going to wander down out of the hills on Saturday.

yeah i will hopefully be there saturday and definetaly be there sunday i will probably be around the hyperlite both! ill be around i look forward to meeting some of you! if you dont mind meeting a 13 year old kid! but ya give me a call if you want to email me and ill give you my cell #

I'll be there all ten days...no surprise there but I don't get to run around and check out all of the cool stuff, I have to work . It will be Disneyland compared to the fishing expo I worked at the Cow Palace the last five days though!

I'll be there

Definitely worth the trip from Sac. I'll be driving from Davis, maybe folks wanna carpool?

I'll be there Sunday. I wanted to go on a weekday but the kids want to go.

I'm probably going to scope out a 05' Super Air. Anybody have opinions on buying before or during the show? The boat I get will probably be a special order since nobody has the color combo I want.

I wouldnt say dont buy one, But I dont know if I buy into the " you can get a rippin deal at a boat show" I think it's kind of hit and miss.

Paul get the 226 instead....

Paul, buy a used Super Air from 2000. Same exact boat, much much cheaper.

I already have a 02' Super Air. The point is to upgrade. Not that a 2000 is a downgrade, but I just prefer new. I really have no legitimate reason to buy a new one other than I want something new.

Kung: Did Matt go with a 226 yet?

J-Rod: He's getting the 226, it's just a matter of when? Hopefully before summer!

are any pros going to be there?

I'm sure of it. I hear Trevor Hansen will be working the CWB booth the second weekend. Last year the HL booth had Harf and Murray. Tino Santori was there. I'm sure there were many I didn't see.

I will be going up with my son tha sat or sun still figuring out when

#2 how old is your son i would love to meet him!

no zack my son is not a pro Just posting to see who else in the area will be there. My son is 5 I saw murry last year and cody ramzy also.

i knew he is not a pro i thought if he was say 14 15 i would like to meet him i guess i should have made that more clearer! but if he is 5 i dont think ill be meeting him

Its good to see a large turn out of people from ww going to/working the show. I to will be there Friday tru Sunday both weekends working the Sanger/supra booth. If your there come buy and say hi, I will try to mingle whenever I get a chance at the other booths.

Who want's to come see you gary !! HAHAHAHAHAHAHA JUST PLAYING TOOL ! You know I love you !!! Hey I am sure there will be a big group of us from SBB up there to see all of you ! I have to go drool of the new VLX !!!

Kung Fu Wake: Why would you want Paul to get a 226? It seems like an ocean liner...don't get me wrong, to each his own, but the 226?

Ocean liner? It's 1 foot longer than a Super Air isn't it? I'd hate to see what you call my 23' Wakesetter. haha

Gary;

Our crew from the foothills will be sure to stop by.
Two Sangers in the clan now that I have one..

(Message edited by sam8 on January 20, 2005)

You guys want to see an ocean liner, come over and see the 23' Supra, Huge is the word.

Oh ya Army Dad look forward to meeting you, Great to have more in the Sanger family.

I'm coming down from Chico for this one (and to party with some friends in the Bay, but whatever). I'll definatley be checking out the Sanger stuff being as I just bought one.

Jesse: If you ever get the chance, go drive and ride behind a 226. Then you will understand why Kung Fu says what he does. I believe my '01 SAN has one of the biggest baddest wakes there is, and I'm still hoping to upgrade to the 226 this year.

be there some day i think on the 30th

Anyone going to be there today ?

Walt i am on my way right now! I am going to be in the hyperlite booth workin! maybe you can introduce your self to me or vise versa! Hit me up 510-552-8915

Yes, I'm going today (Sat 3mp-7pm or so). I'll be sporting a mohawk... hard to miss. Hopefully I can meet some new people and everything.

See yall there!

I was there last night and saw Shawn Watson and Melissa Marquardt.

Here are a few pics from the show.

Kevin i was there working for hyperlite i saw you looking at the stuff i was in a gray hat and a hyperlite sweatshirt organizing vest im preety sure that was you i saw!
and i got a pic and autograph from shaun murray

I wanted to get a pic of Shaun murray but he was swamped with people.

haha, right on Zack. Yeah, I was wearing a red and black Fox jersey and was the only one with a mohawk (that I noticed at least). I was looking at the wakeskates, hoping to find the Byerly more specifically- no luck for me, they were out I was also sad about not being able to see the Cassette Bi-Level.

Shaun did have a lot of people around him, it was cool to see some pros. Today we also saw Cobe, which was particularly fun since my first real wakeboard (after the Wake Tech skurfboard) was his Full Tilt pro-model, he got a kick hearing about that

hope everyone else had fun and got whatever they needed to get

Kevin,
Was there a byerly that you wanted i can talk to my boss and see if he could get one! ill talk to him and tell you if you want me to are you goin to be there tomorrow?

kevin- there are still byerly boards left. if there arent someone can order one for you. they only put a certain number of boards on display at a time, so if it sells out they have to re-stock it. i know for sure there was a byerly board out on display at around 5:00 or 6:00pm. i think you had come and gone by then though (i saw the mohawk/fox jersey).

walt- nice pics. did you try out that pro flight handle-pass-board-spinny-thingy? the one on the left was pretty wrecked by the end of the day...ball bearings were everywhere.

Scott, No I didn't try it but I liked the concept. To bad it got wrecked !

Walt, thanks for the nice pic of the Sanger, You even got me in the photo in the upper left corner. Unfourtunately the customer I was talking with was not buying it was great to see all the people attending. I thought that one of the trick highlights of the show was the Sanger V230 in the Pro Flight booth. Steve's boat has the ultimate in Bling. Laser show plus fog machine and everything chromed. anyone else going next weekend come by and say hi at the Sanger booth. Ask for Gary.

did anybody see the Lightning Accessories booth? Their new 05 tower speakers are really nice.

I'm headed down there tomorrow from reno. Well after hearing stories of nvs tower speakers i might be bad and pick up a pair! Are there any deals for the entity 1010 at the show? You might all see a liquid trends box going up for sale.

The show was absolutely dead on Tuesday...

Glad to see Nelson slavin away in the BP area. The man is a walking history book, we should all be proud to meet and associate with him. Great rider, great fan, great friend.

Also check Hyperlites giant rice cooker I love it.

Mastercraft - spinning vertical display... overkill??

Nautique - clean and simple

Malibu - slightly dull display area

Sanger - old school stage look

Calabria, MB, supreme, Tige - who cares....

*These are only opinions from an industry vet. DO NOT assume that I know anything... hahahaaa

I will be there all this weekend in a green billabong sweat shirt! call me 510-552-8915 and ill be lookin forward to meetin sum of yah

I worked the CWB booth all weekend with CM and Trevor Hansen. It was a great time, but I don't see how some of the exhibitors work the entire show.

Also in the area were Brian Grubb, Mike Schwenne, Kyle Murphy, Garrett Morris, Josh Storrer, and Greg Nelson.

J-Rod

What....... we never hung out that weekend, thats cool. I see how it is.

Oh yeah...and Danny Turner. I overlooked the fact that you too are a celebrity now!

Jarrod

I was at the hyperlite booth both weekends and i was there till everything was tore down too i bet i saw you! But i didnt knwo who you were! i want to see you ride somethime !

Hey Zack. I'm sure we crossed paths. I was helping Ski World load the trailer after the show too.

Thanks but watching me ride isn't anything to write home about.
