"If you've ever fancied contributing to the research and development of kiteboarding equipment, log on to the Airush Lab Rat Survey and share your wisdom with the gurus from Airush"

Like every year, Airush are asking for rider input for their 2017 product range in the 2015 Lab Rat Survey. By surveying riders all over the world, Airush get a broad background in what kiteboarders are actually doing with their gear (not just Airush gear, any gear!) They need to know how often you ride, how you ride, why you buy gear from where you do, and what disciplines you want to explore in the future. With this information, they can make better kites, boards and accessories! New to the survey this year is a question about social media, they're asking what platforms you use every day, so they can show you all their cool new marketing material. (The Seabreeze.com.au kiteboarding forums weren't on the list, so we added them under 'other') They're also asking about foils, obviously hinting that the brand is working on their own design for the freeride market to take advantage of the overwhelming demand right now. So if you've ever fancied contributing to the research and development of kiteboarding equipment, log on to the Airush Lab Rat Survey and have your say!
