Two days of fantastic conditions made Swansea Bay the place to be if you wanted to see the best kitesurfers and landboarders in the UK.  With broken cloud and only a few showers the crowds were out to support the competitors, entertained by Lewis Crathern on the mic, all under the watchful eye of 5 times World Kite Surf Champion, Arron Hadlow.

Congratulations to Toby Raw, local Littlehampton rider competing for the first time in the Pro Mens – he nailed it and took first place. Blue Juice sponsored rider Dan Sweeney fought off tough competition and won all his heats, and finished second overall, setting himself up for the season ahead.

Blue Juice were there to capture the event in stills and on film.

Blue Juice spent Bank Holiday Monday down in Littlehampton on a typically British overcast day, but the most important thing was present – a good south westerly wind.  It was a good opportunity to test out some new camera equipment ahead of the busy summer season, including broadcast quality mics and fluid head video tripods.  Photos from the day can be viewed here - http://bluejuicedesigns.co.uk/gallery-slider-may09.php. Video footage will feature in a forthcoming release for Dan Sweeney, UK KiteSurfer.

Blue Juice photographs used on the front page of the West Sussex Gazzette, and on page 4 of the weekly broadsheet with a circulation of 9,000 copies. Click here to see a pdf of the pages.

A selection of Blue Juice kite surfing photographs will be appearing in a Time Out book out in May 2009.  The book compiles details of various things to do as a day out all within 2 hours from London.
