SLIP n SLIDE WRAP-UP

Wednesday, February 25th, 2009

Well Ladies and Gentlemen, that would have to be the most successful inaugural Jimi Ninja event ever. I haven’t had some much fun, nor walked up a steep ass hill that many times, in forever.

With the full Slide coming in at over 100 metres, I’m still claiming NZ’s largest. But the sheer steepness of it actually did set my heart racing as I went from the very top for the first time.
Now, it wasn’t all sprinkles and rainbows the from the start. As the guinea pig, I now have an amazingly red raw, scratched back that looks like I stole a loaf of bread in 1045 and got me a whipping. But once the slide was positioned properly, it WAS all fun and games.

What I was most amazed about was the support from the surrounding community that walked by. Most of whom went home, got their swimming costumes and came back with the kids for a slide. With about 50 people sliding from the ages of 3 to 53, that total number of Slides exceeded all my expectations.

The Slide cost a bunch of money, but that was all good for the amount of collective fun that people had. And the fact now remains that I own NZ’s longest Slip n Slide and we can pull it out again any goddam time we like.

All this ranting means nothing compared to the pictures, so take a look.

Oh, and also, if you’re on facebook, then become a fan.

Cheers,

Jimi Ninja

THE JIMI NINJA RIVER ADVENTURE

Friday, December 5th, 2008

Righteo!

It’s getting hot. And this is the best way to cool off…

So we’re going to the warehouse, purchasing any inflatable device (I’ve already got my trusty “Explorer”) and riding the rapids down the Kauranga River in Thames.

We’ll stop half way down the river for beers and a bbq and a swim and a jump. (This is also where all non-rafting supporters can hang, get drunk and sunburned)

As stated, this will be on Sunday the 11th of January.
Leaving at 10am for a 12pm start on the river.
We will be returning to Auckland leaving at about 5 or 6.

Feel free to invite and friends that you think might be interested as long as they’re not a cock.

Any questions just shoot me an email or a call.

Or I might update this later with more info…
I’m just so sleepy…
