Congratulations to you, but more so to Peter Lynn for getting you.

Maven454 - 7-12-2010 at 03:48 PM

Maybe now he can get some new air mattresses, instead of those floppy old ones

frankiter - 7-12-2010 at 03:52 PM

Congrats Todd! Now you're an "official" ambassador. Kind of a formality from my perspective.........

InvertedForce - 7-12-2010 at 04:19 PM

CONGRATS TODD! I think Peter Lynn made a good choice bringing you on!

Todd - 7-12-2010 at 04:24 PM

Thanks everyone! This has been an emotional roller-coaster ride over the last month. I would like to personally thank all of you that has supported me in such a great sport. Sharing your knowledge, skill and passion has motivated me to hopefully make something great on the East Coast. Scott (Flyguy101), thanks for the kind U2U that made the difference.

Let the BBQ commence!

WELDNGOD - 7-12-2010 at 04:43 PM

Jaymz - 7-12-2010 at 07:24 PM

Way to go Todd!
You are one of the few I've met who are 100% dedicated to the sport. You've always been a stand up guy and go out of your way to help others. PL's got a winner here folks :thumbup:

Enjoy the honor buddy!

Cory's next in line :yes:

Good on you Todd, and good on Peter Lynn!

Todd - 8-12-2010 at 06:17 AM

Thank you all for the kind words! I am honored to have such good friends.

bobalooie57 - 8-12-2010 at 06:22 AM

Great news, Todd, although you've been a Peter Lynn Team Rider(at heart) ever since I met you. PL couldn't ask for a better representative!

Chad - 8-12-2010 at 11:22 AM

What can I say Todd, You deserve it and much more. Congratulations on a great achievement.
You will make a great ambassador!
:bigok:

Todd - 8-12-2010 at 01:12 PM

Thank you Chad and Bob, very nice of you to say!

bigkid - 8-12-2010 at 01:47 PM

Congrats Todd.
Now to get rid of all those GREAT kites you can no longer fly.
:rolleyes:

:D:D:D:D

kitesurfer - 8-12-2010 at 02:52 PM

Surely, I am not the only one here who does not know what a TEAM RIDER is? What do you do as a team rider? What benefits do you have as a team rider that us normal arcoholics don't have? What did you do, and what were the qualifications to become a TEAM RIDER? seriously, I am posing this as an honest question. In the WHITEWATER world or kayaking that is my roots, we had SPONSORED RIDERS. They were given equipment and their expenses were paid to competitions, promotions, ect...to show the product. Is this the same?

acampbell - 8-12-2010 at 03:32 PM

Similar. usually discounts on equipment but some may be comped. They promote the sport and the brand and usually have to ride the brand exclusively.

I have Team Riders for the store and they help promote the sport and the store, assist with product testing and evaluations and sometimes will assist with specific customer questions that I am not as qualified to answer.

Todd - 8-12-2010 at 04:18 PM

Thank you for the response Angus, that was pretty much right on the money.

Yes Jeff, two of the PKD bigguns are gone and off to new homes. Corey will be keeping the 6m :no:

flyjump - 8-12-2010 at 05:37 PM

Plus lots of free stickers!

aronma - 8-12-2010 at 06:04 PM

Donnie cam. Now that's funny! Todd, you can't have fixed bridle guys passing you like that. We need the retaliatory video. Try to find one where WG is IN the buggy. Uh oh, I must've stirred something up. What's that smell?

Todd - 9-12-2010 at 10:15 AM

WELDNGOD - 9-12-2010 at 10:18 AM

ripsessionkites - 9-12-2010 at 12:55 PM

Todd - 9-12-2010 at 01:09 PM

I went with the Chargers until the Phantom II would come out with the possibilities of some Vapors.

WELDNGOD - 9-12-2010 at 01:09 PM

Must... resist... the temptation...

I had a nice big package sitting on my doorstep when I went home for lunch, thank you Peter Lynn for a great Christmas!

shehatesmyhobbies - 15-12-2010 at 11:58 AM

SWEET!!!!!!!!!! The stickers are going to look great on your helmet and buggy and wherever you can find a place to put all those stickers. Can't wait to see you get one of those chargers in the air!

flyjump - 15-12-2010 at 12:14 PM

yeah man! so are we gonna have an official welcome to the Peter lynn team party this christmas break or at wwbb? cause i think we should throw one for us!

Todd - 15-12-2010 at 12:30 PM

I'm down for that! WW it is.

shehatesmyhobbies - 15-12-2010 at 12:30 PM

I think that sounds like a good idea! Do you know which day you are coming into this area while on your little trip in a couple of weeks!

flyjump - 15-12-2010 at 12:42 PM

i'm emailing todd pretty much on a daily basis. i guess we will know the week of. we will be on the coast the 27th-jan2. So i guess it is weather related. let me know what days work for you guys. pizza and beer? does that sound good? i guess i'm down for whatever anybody else wants to do

WELDNGOD - 15-12-2010 at 01:02 PM

well let's see those babies....

Todd - 15-12-2010 at 01:11 PM

They're still nestled in cellophane for when I get home. :smilegrin:

flyjump - 15-12-2010 at 01:11 PM

weldngod, are you gonna be able to meet up with us in the next few weeks? i'd like to see you there

rocfighter - 15-12-2010 at 01:15 PM

Donnie it's good your going in to work. I hate workers comp. They pay 60% and take for ever to get it to you. I have always asked for light duty work if I got injured at work.

shehatesmyhobbies - 15-12-2010 at 01:39 PM

Works for me Adam! I will just make some sort of arrangements when it's WW time!

flyjump - 15-12-2010 at 01:47 PM

My buddies jordan and paul are super stoked. we cant wait to hangout with you guys. our thanksgiving vid should be up at some point this week

shehatesmyhobbies - 15-12-2010 at 01:49 PM

Having two new PL riders in one location with a ton of video and still camera's is going to be awesome! Looking forward to some great times and some great vids!

WELDNGOD - 15-12-2010 at 02:02 PM
