“Join the World Champion
and undisputed guru of snowkiting, Guillame Chastagnol (Chasta) for 8 days of
total immersion in the sport of snowkiting. Learn from the best and
progress your ability level far beyond your current limits and have a great
time doing it. We’ll spend 8 days chasing the best wind and snow
conditons around the South Island of New Zealand. Explore endless miles
of world class scenery snowkiting with a small group led by local guides.
Boarder
Patrol’s Snowkite Camps are freewheeling adventures chasing the wind around the Southern Alps.
We’ll pick you up at the airport on day 1 and deliver you back completely
windblown on the last day. In between we’ll either stay in remote
mountain huts where the kiting is right outside the door, or in Queenstown or
Wanaka where we have access to the region’s nightlife. We have endless
miles of flat and rolling terrain for beginners and freestyle sessions as well
as steeper bowls and ridges to challenge those with more experience looking to
push their limits.
The week will
start with an opportunity to tune and transform the various kiting rigs for
optimum use on the snow. The first session will be getting to know the
terrain and riding abilities of the group. The camp is all about maximum
progression for each person and having a blast. Ozone will be supplying
demo gear including a range of 2010 kites just released! You’ll have the
opportunity to try different kites and rigs and find what works best for your
style of riding. Each day we will assess the conditions and pick terrain
and missions appropriate to the various levels of riding within the group. The
camp is open to beginners through to experienced kiters.”
