OSKM
Från OzoneSnowkiteMasters, Col de Lautaret – Serre Chevalier – idag
Sigve rockingAnother beautiful blue sky day and some WIND at last. Everyone was stoked to finally get to kite and boy what a show all the riders put on today.
The direction was far from ideal and meant we had to move to the top of the Col where the snow cover is at its worst, unfortunately this was the other side from where we had placed the ABYN.FR rails

MatthieuThe level of all the riders here at the OSKM is outstanding. The snow cover is severely lacking in many spots yet the guys are going for it as if there lives depended on it!!
Imagine for a minute how much skill they have to launch huge stylin’ airs amongst rocks, add in kite loops and we are fortunate to witness the amazing skill and timing they have to land exactly where they want.
Chasta started the charging session with huge airs and sick kite loops – the rest of the rider crew immediately scrambling for their kites ready for a fun jam session ’no rules, no contest pressure just free to ride’.. Free riding at its best, its been so cool to witness the great spirit of everyone here at the OSKM event so far

Fab the Freak enyoingRomain Faberetti was charging hard as ever with his cool technical style, Remi Meum pulling some sweet fully committed handle passes of the improvised rail, Sigve Botnen super smooth and going large, 2004 ski Champion Fabio Ingrosso launching from the top of the Col with Chasta and local kiter Gigi. Fabrice Trip Mond arrived for his first snowkite session of the season and was straight back into top form

Chasta one footEvery rider today gave it their all in far from ideal conditions; true showmen that seriously impressed the media attending that had not seen snowkiting with their own eyes before, exactly what we need to communicate to help snowkiting to continue to grow.

Björn Kaupang stylingJim Gaunt from Kiteworld magazine, a kitesurfer that had not experienced snowkiting before was amazed with how little wind we need to go uphill and utilize the terrain to the max. Christian Black, Kiteworld Mag staff photographer reckons he took the cover shot for the next issue�.lets hope editor Hugh Miller agrees!

Chasta on the railThe weather forecast is for snow and more wind in the next few days so fingers crossed
