Hi,

I stumbled upon this on the net, a Tibetan-style archery competition between two villages in Qinghai.

Seeing it brings back memories from that magical first WTAF in 2007. Those of you who were there can probably all remember the colorful Tibetans, who had to walk for two days with their gear to get to the airport in Lhasa.
