Description

If you heve taken the half-day snowkiting discovery course in l'Alpe d'Huez, or if you already have some experience of kiteboarding in the mountains, I would like to take you a step further with this intermediate snowkiting course over 3 half-days.

This course will enable you to deepen your discovery and mastery of snowkiting on a snowboard, and to escape to the great powdery expanses of the Alpe d'Huez ski area in Isère.

The prerequisite for this day is to be able to snowboard down a red slope.

If you want to progress even further, I recommend that you continue your training by taking this snowkiting course towards autonomy in l'Alpe d'Huez. And if you want to enjoy yourself and discover the resort's off-piste itineraries, you can follow me for a freeride snowboarding session, still in l'Alpe d'Huez.
