On the water

Land-based snowkite spot — no water body. Large flat agricultural fields covered in snow in winter. Snow surface varies with conditions: fresh powder, packed or crusted snow. Flat terrain without obstacles offers ideal learning conditions. Steady wind thanks to the absence of relief.

Hazards

Winter practice only — temperatures can drop below -25°C with wind chill. Risk of hypothermia and frostbite. Ensure sufficient snow cover before riding. Farm fences and ditches sometimes hidden by snow. Power lines to watch at field edges.
