Fly By Wire is an insane setup in the mountains of New Zealand. It involves a wire strung between two peaks and a little vehicle with a propeller suspended from the center. You then lie down on your stomach in this vehicle and go to town, controlling the throttle and steering as you whip around hundreds of feet in the air. Basically, it looks like the most fun you could ever have while suspended from a wire between two mountains. It’s in a remote area, so they transport you out there, which is included in the $96 per person fee they charge for a 25 minute ride. They’re even kind enough to offer an extra 2 minutes for $20 if you just don’t want to get down once you’re up there. Seriously, if this thing wasn’t on the opposite side of the globe I would be figuring out how to get there ASAP. Bring it to the States! (more…)

Snow Kiting is the latest winter sport. Large highly controllable foil kites are used to blast kite pilots along with just the power of the wind! The ‘Big air’ jumps that boarders and skiers are pulling under the power and security of power kites are simply breath taking.
Snow Kiting is a lot easier to learn than kiteboarding on the water!
-It is easy to stand on snow, which makes the whole process easier!
-It also takes a lot less wind to drive a board across snow than it does across water.
-The whole learning experience is lot less daunting as you need much less power and wind to get you moving.
-Finally, holding an edge in snow is much easier than in water making up wind progress much easier to master. (more…)

Mountain boarding, also known as dirtboarding, or all-terrain-boarding, is a new board sport, derived from snowboarding. It was originally intended to take the place of snowboarding during warm months while there was no snow available. It was only in the last 8 or 9 years that mountain boarding has developed into a sport in its own right.
