    Thank you very much.
    António

    Thanks anyway…
    So it seems that 80% of swedish kitesurfers are in the South. Best conditions!
    Well I beleive so, even in the lakes whit all the trees around it is dificult to have constant and clean wind.
    Even using kite of size 16 or higher, seems dificult.

    thanks António

    Eu falo portugues mais ou menus, nao sei ce vc entende tudo? Eu ficei 4 meses em Brasil e aprendei la. So estava falando com pesoas ai nunca fiz uma aula.

    Sim ele esta trabalhando aqui. Eu acho que ele morava em suecia mais de que 14 anos. Ele morava 5 meses comigo, porque ele tem uma casa um pouco longe de aqui mas tem trabalho aqui e queria mora mais perto os dias de semana. O fim de semana ele foi pra casa em Bohuslän. Eu estava doida, nunca aprendei falando com ele antes eu fui pra brasil. Agora eu vou falar porque eu nao quero esqucer.

    Ele nao fazer kite surf, ele e um escalador. Vc escala?

    Qual aula vc vai fazer em Dalarna?

    Beijinhos Virena

    Hi Antonio

    Usually the ”northen” kiters are hanging around http://www.kitenaton.se, so try there for summer kiteing.

    However during winter you have a gr8 spot at ”Högfjället” in sälen which is located about 100km vest of the town Mora where buses depature al the time, for information about this spot se http://www.salenskitecenter.se

    Best of luck and welcome to Sweden!!!

    Hi Antonio!

    As Johan wrote http://www.kitenation.se will get you in contact with local kiters in Dalarna.
    I spend a lot of time in Dalarna during the winter and the snowkiting there is awesome. I also know that there are some pretty nice spots for kitesurfing during summer in lake Siljan. Just make sure to bring your biggest kite since summer almost always means light winds in the middle of the country.

    See you in Sälen this winter. :smirk:
