Default Clutch pedal sticking (slave cylinder??)

I had a exedy organic stage 1 put in with an ACT streetlight flywheel by a local tranny shop about 2 months ago. while doing it they said i needed a new slave cylinder so they installed one. Now the clutch pedal has been sticking to the ground sometimes. Its like it loses pressure after you depress it and stays down. after pumping it a few times it comes back to life. I took it to the shop a few times butit happens so intermittenly i cant reproduce it for them and they just say "oh come back if it happens again". The warranty i have on parts and labor is up in about a month. What should i do and what could it be.
Thanks alot,
Shane

Me and my roomate drove down to a SCCA (i think thats it) race about 30 mins from where i live and as soon as we got their it did exactly that except it was more severe because it would only unstick like 1 out of 100 pumps of the clutch .... so we were looking at it and realized that it either had to be the master or slave cylinder that was bad .... so we bled the system and tryed to get back home (didn't work had to push the car through an intersection going left while we had a red light .... one of the scariest things i've ever done) but that was because his slave cylinder was bad ... but anyway the people who changed your slave cylinder probably didn't bleed the system so thats probably your only problem (not sure though my buddy's car is a 1984 RX-7)

take it back to where you had the work done & get it rechecked. it does sound like it needs to be bled...
