You only need to bring your own Randonee Ski / Splitboard / Snow Shoes. This is also possible to rent in Tromsø. We supply all the kite equipment.
Most of the kite spots around Tromsø are located on flat mountains above the treeline, this means we have to hike to the kite spot. This requires some touring in the mountains & down hill skiing/snowboarding experience.
