FlyMountains, the 1st Snowkiting school in Savoie !
Our goal is to share our passion, to help you discover and love this fantastic sport, in the best conditions possible. All instructors are specifically trained by the French Federation (FFVL)


SNOWKITING is the best gateway to access KITESURFING. Since you're on hard ground (snow) and you only need light wind to start sliding, it is way easier, safer and quicker to learn how to handle the kite. After a few days on snow this winter, you'll be ready to hit the beach next summer and kick ass on a Kiteboard !

You will be learning together with 4 other students maximum for 1 instructor (unless you choose to go for a private lesson..) Snowkiting equipment is 2007. Soft kites (NORTH Kites), harnesses, helmets and radios are provided. Skis and snowboards must be brought with you. If needed, it is possible to rent some at our partner’s shop, TWINNER SPORT La Rosière

Each course is organised as follow :
1- setting up the equipment
2 - practical and theorical course
3 - packing up
4 - debriefing

  • "100% BEGINNER" Initiation to static steering : 1.5 hours
