PL USA - Team Rider Wanted
New season new products to arrive ...
I'm on the hunt to expand my crew for PL USA / CANADA on this side of earth.
More details will be coming up on our website but taking applications now for the long long review process.
Shoot me an email at : richard AT vliegerop-usa.com
I'll send over the application once I'm ready to go.
Everything takes time so bare with me.
*excuse any typos as I'm typing this whole thing on my iphone from vacation*

Break the norm and recruit a middle aged old fart. I'm tired of seeing teenagers and kids barely out of diapers as team riders. Also, please don't
recruit another one of those "hey everybody, look at me" types. Of all the pros and sponsored kiters I've met (and I've met plenty of them) only one
or two contributed anything to the sport in my opinion. The rest were self promoting snobs.

@Todd - Never met a PL sponsored rider, was speaking mostly about all the "big name" companies who have a habit of sponsoring some of the least
likable people in the sport.

I've taken on a new bigger role this year for PL
One of the things on the list was getting more TR and also attending more events
Stay tuned for an exciting year as always.
Keep them coming.

"Git a chica 'cause you seem to have none in the US.

All for PL chicas visiting the bashes!
Otherwise, you'd have to get the male TRs in those pink skirts! (and it still won't be the same!) :bird:
