Dave Ibby is a Pro Kitesurfer for North Kiteboarding and Technique Editor for Kitesurf Magazine UK, taking him around the World to some of the best kite surfing locations, recently retuning from Kenya where Dave tested the Island Tribe clear gel protection for the first time. This is what he had to say about our product.

“I’ve really struggled over the years of competing, testing and doing various shoots in hot locations to find a sun cream that does the job for someone like me. I am pretty useless at covering up, hate coming off the water to re-apply sunscreen if I’m having a good session and don’t like waiting for a product to take effect before heading out. Most I’ve tried don’t last or are just no good for kite surfing and run into my eyes which is just the worst in bright conditions or in the waves.”

“I tried the 40 Island Tribe clear gel whilst in Kenya recently which is a pretty hardcore climate and it was without doubt the best sun cream I have used. There was no waiting once applied and one application lasted easily all day whilst out on the water. This was my third time in Kenya and was the first time that I hadn’t burnt, which in 40+ degrees is saying something!”

“Superb product, great value, gives real piece of mind and it lasts ages. I would highly recommend it and will certainly be using it on all my future trips.. Thanks a lot … Dave Ibby”
