It is much easier to learn snow kiting with skis than with a snowboard. Courses are arranged at short notice according to wind and weather conditions. Usually the introductions start at 9.30 or 10 am. The kite equipment and harness are included in the course fee. Every participant must have his own accident and liability insurance.
