so, i'm heading QTN for 4 days in August. it's a conference so i'll have free time only between 9.30 and 16.30. not enough time to go to the snowpark near wanaka. i'll be most likely without a car. these are the facts. will i have a chance to snowkite? is yes, where??? many thanks for your suggestions!

Hmm, to kitesurf or to landboard? That is the question for a kite addicted junkie.

You'll at least need to get up into the mountains, which means a skifield road or a 4x4, so snowfarm is probably the best if you want reliable fun. I don't know if there's going to be a kite-festival again, but if there is it might even be around the time you're there, or near enough that it's worth staying an extra week.

YEHHHHHHHHH - I’m in for some of that - what dates are you in town DOOM? - Also I like your Freudian slip “I’ll have free time only between 9.30 and 16.30” if that’s the case you’ll need to get someone to sign the register and take notes
