This is what you can expect!
Snowkite Refresh is for those who want to get back to snowkiting after a time of inactivity. The course fits also perfect for those who have tried kitesurfing (on water) and want to try on snow. We adapt the kite course to your level, filling in the gaps. Then focus alot on riding with your skis or snowboard.
Our instructors complement your knowledge in a quick and safe way. The course is intensive and can be done with other participants in small groups.
