They are heckled by some. They are banned at many places.

But even if you are among the hecklers, feel free to read this short brief on snowboarding’s latest sibling and possibly closest relative: kiteboarding on snow, aka snowkiting. You’ll want to do this because they are already blasting airs bigger than us – 5 seconds of hang time is stock – and tracking freshies in places we can’t go, such as a field or a lake nearby your house.
