A short video of some guys practicing their kiteloops. Nothing flash except that the beach that they are launching from is covered in snow!

WOW - not the kiteloops - but the weather!

If it's that cold that there is snow and you need a drysuit why the f*%& would you go kiting in the water - buggying would be much more fun.

Looks like they're kiting after a nuclear holocaust or something.

Crazy 'kers!

More to the point, stay on the snow and whip out a snowboard :D

That is awesome! Imagine if you made a board that had quick retracting and extending fins so you could kite from water to snow, snow to water etc (or jump from one to the other) with out having to stop and change boards. Getting a few crazy ideas![}:)][}:)][}:)]

I don't know about the kitelooping bit, but I really liked the vid and would love to kite in a place like that..maybe just once. The isolation, cold water and freezing air would certainly add to da feeeeeln.

Yea, you should....I once froze my right nut swimming in a glacial pool at 2.7 K meters altitude........but ah the memories....that was after my children....setting a good example as usual.
