Kites

I started flying dual line sport kites when I was 10 years old. I won my first national competition in 2000, going on to win the Junior Championships three years running.

 

After competing in the individual flyers circuit until the age of 17, I Joined Team Scratch Bunnies. We were National Champions in 2004, 2005 and 2007. We placed second in the European Championships in 2004 and 3rd in 2008. We placed 5th in the World Cup in 2008.

 

I also compete as Pair Diesel with Chris Goff. We were placed 4th at the European Championships 2008, our first year in competition.

 

Team Sport kite flying is a fast paced aerial perfmormance, high in choreography and drama. The kites are flown in geometric formations that interpret the actions of the music, with complex manoevures that are written, rehearsed and flown as an aerobatic display
