Snowkiting

A form of recreation and sport. It is a winter variation of land kiteboarding in which the kite (a wing resembling a parachute or a paraglider) attached to the snowkiter allows them to perform different tricks. The kite also lets the snowkiter break away from the ground. The kite, plugged into the harness and located twenty meters away, is the rider’s driving force. Skis or snowboard attached to the operator's feet are used to glide on the snow.
