Snowkite

It’s that time of year again when I normally go to Latin America to clock someDSC_0987 paragliding hours. This year I didn’t make it to the Paragliding World Cup Superfinal in Mexico because of the Indian food poisoning (see below). What could be better then, than to go to the mountain with kite and skis and get some fresh air and speed on powder snow? Picture is taken at Vegglifjell in January. I even liked it so much I have now invested in Randonee equipment with a pair of Blizzard Cochise skis (108 mm in the middle), Scarpa Maestrale RS boots, Marker F12 bindings and G3 Alpinist skins. Hopefully there will be some cross country trips before the snow melts. Initial plan is to snowkite a 60 km out and return trip and then make an expedition with tent and sled. Maybe VAKE at one point in the future? 🙂
