First time participant- totally amped for it, large SA contingent firing up for a very loose week.... Heard a rumour that there is usually a theme night- any heads up on what that might be ? anything else organisers wanna spill and let us know about ? Any stuff we should bring ? already sourced fireworks, slingshots, paintball guns and a truck load of gerbils- have we missed anything ?
Yes! bring some women with you. It's a huge penis festMy suggestion... FREE entry half price drinks for all kiting chicksWho's with me???
Make sure you leave AIRUSH GEOFF home.
I hear Surfer 62 is going as your kite bitch?
It's a great week Lover, you'll need a week to get over it as well.
All i am gonna say is that mambo is never gonna be the same again... I have done the robe Easter Classic with them and I am still recovering!!!! Do us proud lads, wish I could have been going with you!!!
Is talk that Robbie Naish will be coming with Randy and Robbie's son.
You can be reasonably confident that you should bring a large supply of lemons. More on that as we get closer.
It's on from 25 to 28 November.
What else to bring??? Hmmm. What about a tarp for the tarp surfing comp on the netball courts next door. Major prize for best Tarp Tube!!!
Also mind altering substances, party island, beroccas, bus load of swedish nymphs.
The Merimbula Sailboard Club will be meeting soon to fine tune some of the details. Will try to get a list of absolute necessities going for the Mambo virgins.
Sweet - saving my lemon money and got plenty of beroccq stored up..... We will of course be bringing the sa flava with gargleblasters and apparently if I get the secret recipe in time a new shot that will be hurting well into the recovery week- can't wait !
someone told me that you have to be a big drinker to win at mambo, it has nothing to do how good you are, or if you can kitesurf.
I'm thinking of coming down too.
I know one thing you don't need to bring and that is slice... Maybe bring some lube for shelving bulk **** though.
