I wonder what this is going to do to all of the slingshot sales and riders at McCormicks. I would guess that it will be a slow transition to most people riding the LF flex boards there. Each cable seems to get one board company that dominates and for McCormicks it was slingshot, but now with an exclusive sponsorhsip deal, there will definitely be an LF takeover.

Pretty sure they are still selling slingies. They were still there last time I went and i didn't hear anything about them stopping from J. Dickey... maybe he can chime in or someone else can to clarify.

Doesn't Liquid Force help out Slingshot. I thought they were a parent company or something. I could be wrong. So if that is true why would LF want to take over Slingshot, I'm sure they don't, because it helps them out either way.
