Special Guests from Team Jackson Kayak will be on site and here's the skinny on that...

Boyd Ruppelt will be down at the ledge by 10:00a.m. for a intermediate/advanced Men's and Women's Playboating Clinic before the Throwdown!!

After all of that they will be at the shop (O.O.O.) for a meet and greet and premier showing of the new Hotel Charley....

The format of the Throwdown will be a standard Rodeo, then a KING OF THE WAVE COMPETITION!!!

Free Prizes, good friends, and Great Fun!!!

If you haven't been to a Throwdown before, just ask the folks who came last year!

Oh Boy I can hardly wait! Maybe I will win another Dog leash or some more Duct Tape like last year I Bet Renee wins all the good prizes again she has some good Karma when it comes to the throwdowns. Is there a contest for surfing Dogs? Rouge has already run the Tot at 5'3 so surfing should be easy for him, not sure about cartwheels yet See everyone on Sat.

NEED 8 FOOT LEVEL!

[Jeremy M]

We won't have the big level, but for the rest of the month it looks like Rockport will be running from 10a.m. until midnight every day...so we will have water for the event, which is going to be BIG FUN!

[Sir Kayakalot]

Woo-hoo!!! Can't wait till Saturday! Rickyrod, I hope
your new move you been working on can beat my
half-loop. See y'all there.

NOTE: THE CLINIC WILL START AT 10 AM AND THE THROWDOWN IS PUSHED BACK TO 2 PM TO ACCOUNT FOR REST TIME AND FOR WATER TO RISE FOR CLINIC

[rickyrod]

tommy haven't seen you in a coons age. cant' wait. we can prob learn somthing from boyd, the jackson dude he was throwing down last weekend. I thought it was you at first. it will be a great time brother. C U THIS WEEKEND. peace in the middle east.

[Jeremy M]

Now that everyone's all fired up about the throwdown its time to ask for some volunteers...

Do you know what a cartwheel, helix, pistol flip, loop, mcnasty, or a phonix monkey looks like? Yes or no, it doesn't matter...just need three volunteers to be judges. You'll have a lot of fun and maybe even be bribed with libations from participants.

Hope to see everyone this weekend for a good time.

Tell you what...first person that can do a pistol flip at Rockport....gets my vote for President...of whatever they like.

Man, that sounds like a fun time for all!!! I am supposed to be in Dallas all weekend.....but I will see what I can do.....thanks Jeremy!!!!! I would love to be there and meet everyone that I read about and see video on from the club....as a beginner playboater, at best, I do seem to have the windowshade move Ricky mentioned down pretty decent,,, :}
That DVD Dream Results I picked up last week......those dudes are superhuman paddlers......good show!

[Sir Kayakalot]

jtarver, does the pistolflip have to be done intentionaly to get the president vote?

[cate the rafter]

I don't know what any of those look like, but I do love to be bribed with libations!

[Jeremy M]

This seasons throwdowns are now backed by monster energy too....now it will be even easier to get amped up

[JTarver]

Intentional..nah. I'm easy. Plus, these days, my vote doesn't count much. lol
