The Animaris Protinus, that’s the beast which Theo will show on the beach. It is a twin animal. Two beasts that hold each other so, they will not be blown over. Those two animals are completely different. One is specialized in propulsion (many sails); the other is the bottle carrier and controls all the senses. They are connected like a siamese twin and live in symbiosis with each other. When the wind is low ( <22km/h ) be aware that one person standing in the way of the wind is enough to disturb the airstream and take the wind away from the animal. After the try-out on the hard part of the beach Theo will give a lecture about his work in beach bar De Fuut.
