LEARN SNOWKITING!

At our Snowkite Course for Beginners where we go through everything you need to become an independent snowkiter!

With the right conditions a lot of our participants are up and riding already on the first day of the course!

But we also spend time learning the right safety procedures, basic wind knowledge, and special precautions that are important to take when one is kiting at high speeds and can cover great distances in deep snow.

PROGRAM

The program is preliminary and will be adjusted according to conditions and skills.

Attendance at 9.30 am outside Haukeliseter.

During the 2 days we will cover the following:

  • Gear and Terminology
  • Wind Window
  • Kite Control
  • Safety
  • Rigging
  • Safety System
  • Navigation
  • Assisted Launch & Landing
  • Kiting at speed
  • Riding, stopping, and jybing with skis/board
  • Emergency Landing
  • Assessment of Conditions and Kite Spot
  • Choice of Equipment

Expect full days outside from 9.30am-4pm in the snow.

We meet in the car park outside Haukeliseter on Saturday morning at 9.30am. Exactly where we end up the day in question depends on wind conditions, but all spots are within a short drive away from Haukeliseter.

Often we can just stroll down to Ståvatn, within walking distance of Haukeliseter Fjellstue.

If you have to leave earlier on Sunday you are free to do so.

ACCOMODATION

Unless you have access to another cabin in the Haukelifjell/Røldal area, we recommend to stay at Haukeliseter.

Accomodation has to be booked separately from the kite course.

If it is full at Haukeliseter, it is also possible to stay in Vågslid (10 min) or Røldal (30 min) if you come with your own car.
