Tried and Tested

As we emerge from winter hibernation, the test team has had a few good days on the water. We’ve got the new ION Seek Select 4/3 on test, a great suit to keep you warm in the tween months either side of summer. Plus, we put two of Cabrinha's flagship kites to the test, the new Switchblade Apex and the Moto Apex!
