editOrial Early december now, the (first) ski resorts are just opening. Everywhere on the medias, TV, facebook, news, the same message «Let’s go to the first ski resorts open. Yehaa. Super. Crazy. Yahwoo.» But... Hey guys, open your mind, we are cruising on snow with our kites for more than the past two monthes now. Ah, ah, ah... The first issue of White Kite was a repot at the Iron Cross Pass (Col de la Croix de Fer) on last september 20th with fresh powder. Well, so this jounal is mainly about our way of skiing, snowboarding, safe gliding, freeriding, backcountry sessions, having freestyle tricks, cruising around on snow, drawing our own track without anybody around, far from the avalanche risks, the real freedom of skiing, I mean SNOWKITING !!!! In this issue #4 of WK, I will speak about our sessions here in France at the Lautaret Pass during past november, especially showing the mythical spot Les Trois Evêchés we can reach when the south-east wind is blowing, I will introduce the new 2012 Frenzy Ultralite, the Vintage page will show a journey we had in Norway on 2005 with the Ozone team, and as last report, we’ll go for a snowkiting session with snowmobiles on a plateau where no kiters went before, that was in Utah, near Fish Lake, on 2011 february. OK, it seems that the snow will come to our french Alps tomorrow december 4th. Great news. Next issue #5 of WK will bring amazing reports with powder sessions. Have big time dudes. Always take care with your kite in the mountains. Cheers. :-) Pascal
