Why we like wind and snowkite

Winter is coming and the first snow start to reach the summits.

It’s time for us to give you a first taste about what will happened  next winter on RIDEUP.TV .

During the winter we will show you differents ways for snowkiting.We ‘ll travel together in the French and Swiss Alps, but also everywhere we can find snow and wind. We will transport you on the top of the mountains in ghost ski resort working just when Eole is waking up.

You will understand why today, we love the wind  blowing in the mountains.

From see level to top glacier, on skis or on board, it’s with our kite that you will ride up.

 It’s just a lot of good freeride, join us, just need a kite!

Be lead by the wind and land softly in the powder!

Have a good ride

Snowkite History

Gaspard de la Meije made the first ascent of La Meije (Massif des Ecrins) in August 1877 .Inspired by the Hautes Alpes, began there adventure in 1998 to 2058m Col du Lautaret, a group of young skiers and snowboarders discovered a new way to hike in the mountains.
From that moment the power of the wind became a friend, helping us to reach beautiful areas in the mountain.
Pushing the limits of climbing mountains with a kite are the snowkiting
