Andy Wardley & the Airbow

Andy Wardley and Tim Benson brought some Airbows along for people to try out. The sail colour schemes are very striking, and allow you to easily tell which way up the kite is.

As well as competing in the STACK Trickout (which he won on the day), Andy also had fun firing water bombs, and mountain boarding down the hill. And he also found time to do some filming for the new Aeolian DVD, "Flying Techniques", coming soon...
