Kite skating, sometimes referred to as ice kite skating, para-skating or para ice skating, is an ice-based sport using a large controllable kite to propel ice skaters across frozen rivers, frozen lakes and other frozen surfaces.
In fact, it's possible to exceed safe speeds quite easily, leaving one's legs exhausted from absorbing the shock of bumpy ice and becoming susceptible to spectacular crashes.
On a gusty winter day one spends considerable time raising the kite in the air parallel to the ice or to the opposite direction of riding to slow down somewhat.
This sport unlocks a lot of possibilities on new tricks to be added or invented like ''Double around the world" in the YouTube video - This is Kiteskating.
Also much smaller kite suggested than same wind conditions on the water as there is no friction or resistance on the ice skates.
