2007 WANAKITE Snowkite Freeride 4 years, 10 months ago #14804

The OZONE snowkite team are in New Zealand during August, so we're aiming for a long weekend in the snow round Wanaka, maybe checkout some spots round Tekapo on the way down south, it's likely we'll be hitting some new terrain too....

August 16-19th looks good, so this gives everyone plenty of notice to get ya shit together!

We'll post suggested places to stay, there is limited space at the Wanaka YHA for example...keep ya posted

Had a wee kite in the snow yesterday at Lake Lyndon with John, bit of fun, helped rescue a sunken 4WD from the ice, very funny!

Nice one Tim, i'm down in Queenstown that week, perfect timing.

I'm staying in Tekapo the weekend before (11/12th/...), got a whole house sorted so plenty of space if anyone wants to head down that weekend too and needs a place to crash.

Shane.

Looks like the forums are working for me again as well.... woot...!!

Chasta and Pascal Boulgakow, the legend cameraman arrive for 10 days to capture some incredible footage of the New Zealand Winter. Dom is also joing them for 2 weeks and we aim to get some great images as they travel around this stunning country

They are on a one month road trip heading to every snowkitable spot in NZ. The scenery is stunning here and the free-ride opportunities endless.
Pascal will be making short videos and taking dreamy pictures of this Ozone Snowkite Adventure

Unfortunately we have lost our accommodation for the weekend of the 11th & 12th August at the last minute....

I am now desperately trying to sort out some alternative accom so that we do not have to blow the weekend off...

More news when I have it....

yes sorry about that guys - unfortunately in Tekapo there aint much of a back up plan in the event of shite weather (i.e. no decent pubs!), the crew I am travelling with would rather get the hell on down to Queenstown.

good luck on finding snowy slopes that face into wind... see ya'll that can make it down at snowfarm.
