We were very excited when we first got the call - to work for a company as world renowned as Cisco is an amazing opportunity - but to have to go all the way to Hawaii to do it? Unbelievable! Huge thanks to Cisco and to Invision for having us perform at this event. The stage set looked amazing; a 3-D playground made of steel and plexiglass, the "Death Star" in the middle was over 16 feet tall! Tribe members  Demon (Ryan Ford), Frosti (Frosti),  M2 (Mark Toorock), Skipper (Billy Hughes), Skynative (Levi Meeuwenberg) and Tyson (Tyson Cecka) were joined by Amanda "Phytolith" Henry and Sam "Disciple" Slater. Rehearsal times was cramped, but the crew pulled it off like true professionals. Unfortunately, on the last dress rehearsal run of the night, Frosti sprained his foot. After a check up at the hospital he was in an aircast and will have to lay off it for a few weeks, but recovery should be quick and the damage is not as bad as it might have been. Frosti appears in all the pics as these are from the rehearsals - for the performance M2 had the tall task of filling Frosti' shoes - of course Frosti is an 11 1/2 and M2 just a 10 - so the part had to be tamed down a lot, but it came out OK in the end. To add to the carnage, Tyson whacked his head on a bar the next day - 3 stitches, but still ran that afternoon's finale performance! Everyone did an awesome job during the actual performance, the crowd went NUTS when Skipper and Levi did huge 8' frontflips onto the stage! Check out the photos in the gallery . See above for the video!
