OGO & Fishpipe at IAAPA 2009


After a non-eventful 2,000 mile journey across the USA to Las Vegas we set up our booth at the IAAPA (International Attractions and Amusement Parks Association) expo.


Anything that could go wrong during setup didn't. The whole process was very smooth and everything worked exactly as it should. Dave and Chris had a momentary panic when they pushed the start button for the Fishpipe for the first time and nothing happened, but plugging it into the electricity supply made a big difference and we were off and spinning.



The IAAPA expo itself was extremely successful for us. We were kept talking to prospective buyers and demonstrating both the Fishpipe and the OGO every minute of every day - we didn't even get a chance to check out the other booths and rides!


In addition we had TV crews filming us and interviewing us for Fox and ABC Morning News on consecutive days.


It was great being back out there catching the enthusiasm from other people for our creations. Now we're crazy-busy replying to the hundreds of enquiries and building units for shipping around the world.
