  1. I'm coming into this a little late but I honestly dont think that most resports are into the customer satisfaction thing. There still pissed off that the golden days have ended and that they cant count on every schmoe from town to pick up a pair of skis and head to the mountains for days on end. Under those kind of sellers market conditions, no wonder what people actaully want is secondary. Case in point, have you guys ever been to naeba mid week? Its been snowing like a banshee for 3 days straight, you take a day off work to enjoy some primo pow get to resort only to find out that they decide

  3. From the pictures I've seen its just like kitesurfing, but on snow... I.e. you need large flats if youre into speeding, but theoretically only a smaller area if you wanna do tricks and stuff. You use a traction kite usually between 7-12 sqm meters in surface area, a control bar and harness(like any windsurfing harness). This stuff is excellent on water and looks like a lot of fun on snow so....
  4. So its getting a little colder these days. Want to take my kites up to Niseko. Anyone have any experience where you can do some Snow kiting up there?
