No, sorry, not much space at Mt Buller. Perhaps try Hotham, or Falls. It's not any more dangerous, unless you start pushing things / getting huge airs, etc. Basically it's because you don't need as much power on the snow as you do on the water. Less power gets you more speed and longer jumps. It's all good (unless the weather craps out on you).

There's a post on here about a snow kiting instructors course in NZ....contact that guy directly and have a chat. I don't think it's any more dangerous than landboarding....if you jump high you don't have the soft water to land on

, depends on your definition of dangerous I suppose!!
