Hi folks,
again, apologies if this is not the right place - it was reccommended to me that I post this query to this forum - and I think I can see why!

In any case, I'm living in japan, and not being a great gun with the kite - I still wanted to try out some snowkiting with it. Unfortunatly, I don't speak japanese very well and information about the best places - or indeed ANY places, is hard to come by.

So I thought I'd open it up to people who might know - has anyone tried much snowkiting in japan - and if so, where did you go? was it good/bad/lousy - should I just ship my kite back home and hang onto the snowboard?

Looking forward to your suggestions.
E.
