looks like you missed the colorado snow kiting event... Only noticed this post on another forum after seeing yours...


Colorado Kite Force is hosting their 5th Annual Therapy Sessions Snowkite Event

Dates: March 7th, 8th, and 9th of 2008
Location: Dillon Reservoir. Summit County, Colorado.

Websites:

Directions: http://www.coloradokiteforce.com/home/location.php

Store Contacts : 970-262-5734 or jon@coloradokiteforce.com & anton@coloradokiteforce.com


Free entry to competitions, prizes, and giveaways for all freeriders. Will also have demos, and beginner lessons for anyone wanting to participate in a free clinic. Don't miss the BBQ, pumping tunes, swag and after-party. You can freeride in the park or take off out onto the lake to explore for miles. Downwinders from the Dam or an impromptu winduro race are some other possibilities but the details still need worked out.

The conditions have been unbelievable recently on the Reservoir and everyone needs to plan to make this one, because it is gonna be a blast!

DAMMIT!!!! I've been up to dillon before and talked with the owner of kiteforce but it would have been nice to get to an event. I'm gonna try and get up there over break.

Hey, I have family in Loveland. I try to visit once in a while. How far to where you fly from there?

When I snowkite im always at lake Dillon. But at home I'm either in Highlands Ranch, or Winter Park.

i live at lake mccaughey in nebraska, a great kite surfing spot. also with the banked sand dunes it is a blast for a big foot bugy or flat land on the 40,000 acers of free land around the lake.

this is a long way out, but Ill home in Colorado Springs for about 3 weeks around Christmas/new years time. That also happens to be when Ill be able to pick up my first kite. I just had a 5m HQ apex shipped there and Im sure Ill be hankerin' to take it out as soon as I get it, haha. If you are around and want to teach a newbie some of the ropes maybe we can work something out...

I would definitely like to get together sometime to kite... as soon as I get one... I am in the process of choosing and buying my first kite. I have only done it once, (using a buddy's kite) but I really, really want to do it again. Plain old kite jumping is the only thing we did, so it is all I know how to do... for now. I live in Centennial, CO and I do not know of any places to go and do this. Any suggestions would be great, less than an hour drive would be phenomenal...
