After last years flat waves, it was decided that the Surf Contest would be
better suited to take place in Spring when there is a better chance of waves,
plus the air and water temps will be warmer.
In addition with the City of Daytona no longer allowing car events in the
Bandshell, it doesnt really make sense to have a surf contest at the Bandshell
during WinterJam, if we can have the Bus Show there anymore. _________________ www.DaytonaWinterJam.com

ohh, that's a bummer about the bandshell, that was a great location. i'm guessing that's what drove the concept of meshing the Bus and DubJam shows together then?
Since the waves dictate the surf comp and there isn't going to be an actual Surf Contest, is their any chance of still incorporating the Surf aspect of WinterJam into the Bus Show/DubJam H20 Show? By that i mean, could you guys round up a bunch of Surf Shops, Manufacturers, Suppliers, etc and incorporate a mini-Surf Expo/Trade Show right in with the Saturday Show? I know in January there's a huge Surf/Skate trade show in Orlando, and up here in Atlantic City they do one too, maybe hit those this year if you haven't already and see if there's any interest from them and what can be done for future WinterJams. This will also help broaden the spectator audience at the same time.
as a test, you should hire a photographer this year to take photos the entire weekend of everyone's feet (sneakers, sandals, flipflops), then hit those top 3 Manufacturers for Sponsorship for the following year....my guess is that VANS, REEF, CONVERSE, and SANUK might be close to the top _________________ Old City Oil Drippers

Basically, the city spent a million dollars on new tiles for the bandshell & the
boardwalk and right after it was done, we had our bus show, then there was
another car show in march too. After our show, there was oil stains all over
the new tiles & they were unsealed. After the other car show in march, there
were broken tiles..! So the city decided not to have any more car show in
the bandshell or boardwalk. We were basically forced out & had no choice in
the matter. _________________ www.DaytonaWinterJam.com

Yes, the decision to move the bus show was out of necessity. Not choice.
In regards to Dubjam, most of the H2O guys preferred Riverfront Park to
the Ocean Center, so we decided to move it back to Riverfront Park. So
now we can have the bus show in City Island & the H20 show in Riverfront
Park, and they are within walking distance of each other.
We are trying to bring some of the surf aspect back to the event. We have
secured the halfpipe, and it will be setup on City Island throughout the weekend. _________________ www.DaytonaWinterJam.com

really mike? they had the spectator entrance covered and were giving out flyers right at the gate between the foodbank truck and the ladies collecting entrance fees....
mike must have snuck in again this year, probably has freshly cut field grass sticking out of his shirt and shorts...
well, come to St.Aug and you'll get a flyer and hopefully the OCOD Beanies haven't sold out by the time you arrive!
see you guys saturday! _________________ Old City Oil Drippers
