ShayDn 0 Posted December 16, 2008 Share Posted December 16, 2008 I was watching an old Warren Miller film, and saw some guys basically windsurfing on Snow, doing jumps tricks and all sorts. Looked like really good fun, and since I just took up sailing this year, I'm interesting in combining my two favourite sports... Then I found KiteWing - seems like the perfect opportunity because I can use it with Skis (am not a boarder...) and inline skates in summer... Anybody have any experience with these? Anywhere I can try one out in Japan? They're pretty expensive to take a gamble on... but looks like it would be fun. Imagine being able to sail UP the slope when there's a big queue for the drag lift Link to post Share on other sites
Red Dog 0 Posted December 17, 2008 Share Posted December 17, 2008 kinda like kite boarding yea! mybrother has one ofthose, great fun, but don,tget caught in strong gusty winds or there,s trouble. Get it then take it to the beach till ya get the hang of it, nice nd softsnd. I wouldnt be brave enough to go up mountain with it though, too unpredictble, the weather tht it.

ShayDn 0 Posted December 18, 2008 Author Share Posted December 18, 2008 My main concern is whether the resorts will allow me to use something like this... It's an expensive outlay if I don't get to use it.... Link to post Share on other sites
thursday 1 Posted December 18, 2008 Share Posted December 18, 2008 do you really think Japanese resorts with their ultra conservative outlook on anything new would allow such a radical thing on their premises? Oyuki had trouble even with his noboard. Link to post Share on other sites
