hiyas, anyone know much about kiting at falls creek? heading up there in a couple days and considering chucking a kite in with my gear :)
Hi Jan,
Falls is great for snowkiting. I have been heading up there since 2002. Depending on the wind you may want to start somewhere between the top of Ruined Castle or Scotts chair. Between the two is a nice bowl that has variable wind depending on your placement. You can head all the way out to Mt Makay if the weather is right. Pretty flat and high generally means stable wind. Be careful with gusty conditions as it would be unfortunate to find yourself wrapped around a chairlift and may make it a lot harder for fellow kiteskiers to use the terrain in the future. My experience has been that the mountain staff have generally been supportive if you are sensible. Have a bit of video footage of the area but I cannot seem to upload it.
Cheers,
Chris ;-)
