Using the power of the wind to pull you around and play isn’t something new. First there was windsurfing, which used a sail attached to a surfboard. It evolved into kitesurfing, which uses a kite higher up in the sky that the rider can control from atop his or her board to allow for more power as well as bigger and longer airs.
Snowkiting came about a few years ago on the heels of the kitesurfing movement. The concept is the same on snow except you are pulled around on a snowy field or frozen lake, even up a hill. |
