In recent years, snowkiting has become the new trend sport in winter. All you need is snow, wind, a snowboard or skis and a kite. The sport has evolved from skiing or snowboarding and kitesurfing. It is therefore the perfect winter activity for adventurous sportsmen. Thanks to the stable surface on the snow, it is easier to learn than kitesurfing on the water. So even as a beginner you will be able to ride the first meters after a few hours.
