Now, as much as we would like it to be Xmas everyday because you can never have enough hand knitted socks from Aunty Beryl, you have to ask yourself- what is it that is going to get the people coming to Geelong in the new year? Bring back Salty the Seal? .....maybe.....create a suburb called Baconia that gives its residents tax breaks on pork products? (we don't hate it) ...or.......Bring the massive kickass Street Slide to the people of Geelong. Ok that idea there.......We loooooooooooooooooooove it!!
So what next? start by signing this bad boy then sit back and pick out your slide suit as we take the petition to the big guy for a tick of approval. And if we know Darryn Lyons (and we like to pretend we do) we think he would be gagging to unite the community at speed down Moorabool St of blow up tubes in a froth of sudsy goodness.
So come on Geelong. If you don't sign the petition for the people of Geelong then sign it for Gary from K-ROCK sales who has never ridden a slip and slide in his life. Yes c'mon, do it for Gary.

Darryn Lyons has just sent us a note regarding the proposal for Moorabool Street. Things are moving faster than expected.
January 7, 2015
The momentum is real and Geelong is clearly ready for a slide. Gary better start practicing his form.

As much as I hate the idea of having the streets closed and some idiotic people running around in practically no clothes, it might be fun. As long as there is rules and discipline if things don't go well. We all know there will be fighting and rude people so hopefully this can be handled in the best way and it's a good experience.
the amount of people that it would bring from the surrounding areas would be huge. boosting the CBD
Would be mad In Geelong but if I have to go to Melbourne I will this must be done
this would be awsome, have it set up for 2 weeks over xmas new yaer break every year, dont worry about traffic in town as there is none these days
OMG! I Have never seen anything so cool! :) can't wait to get my slip n slide on! Gonna get the old boy out of the shed and start practising now! :)
OMG!!!! yes i think that every one in Geelong would love it!!!

this need to happen, I didn't go and see the christmas tree for a reason, that reason is because ive seen many christmas tree covered in light many many times, so this needs to happen because how many of you out there can say that you have been on a slippery dip that is the length of one of the main streets in the town that you live in. That and its some different that we have never seen before
