Snowkiting Switzerland
is it easy?
The Simple answer is “yes” if you can fly a kite on land then you can kiteboard on the snow, and even if you cant fly a kite the basics can be learnt pretty quick.
The hard part is deciding whether you are going to ride a snowboard or a set of skis.
Im a skier at heart,but my first outing in light winds with a 12m Ozone frenzy foil kite was actually with a snowboard.
If you can kitesurf or kite landboard it will be instinctive, and going ‘UP’ hills is a pleasant bonus!!
If you are keen to give it a try Gower kiteriders can highly reccomend there affiliate welsh school ‘Big blue kitesurfing’ who
are out in switzerland till the end of march – and have spaces in their 8 sleeper chalet.
Within easy reach of piste skiing this location offers customers the opportunity to snow kite and piste ski/snowboard all
in one day.
Other contingency activities include a 2 mile downhill toboggan run through the trees,exploring the mountains and glaciers or just taking time to take
in the stunning scenery and fresh mountain air.
