Summary

Skiing and snowboarding are dangerous enough. Bringing the unpredictableness of the wind into it is truly for daredevils. Snowkiting provides an incredible new kind of rush to the snow sports. Catching the wind with a kite gives extreme athletes a chance to take flight for a bit while using a snowboard-like blade to cut through the snow. From learning the basics to watching the pros in action, readers see how dangerous and thrilling snowkiting is, and how they can learn it for themselves, if they dare
