Welcome to Road Trippin’ with Andy Yates, a series about where kiteboarding can take you.
In episode two, Andy and ‘That Camera Guy’ Jordan Roberts travel South from Cairns to the isolated Aboriginal community of Yarrabah. They were so warmly welcomed there, and were privileged enough to be shown around by Pat Lasalo and his colleagues Richard and Lavin, the community’s well respected paramedics. Both stopped by the museum, primary and secondary schools and took a bunch of awesome kids out for a kite at one of their stunning beaches.

Andy was the 2010 PKRA World Champion and is still not only an incredible kiteboarder and amazing athlete, but a super down-to-Earth guy willing to step outside his comfort zone to experience something different. He’s studying medicine, with a focus on tropical and indigenous medice, a fact that’s explored more in this episode.
From Yarrabah, they headed further South to a place called Lucinda for what was one of the best kite sessions so far!
