Its on my list of things to do !
Its actually closer to try snowboarding in chile or Argentina ! But the
cold SUCKS. I lived in boston for 3 years so I know that anything below -10
C is just not cold... Its painful...
I am looking for a sport that can be done in 10 - 40 C.
Maybe you want to meet up in Argentina some day ? It would make it
interesting for you too !

Stef,
You got bored of kiting because you have never tried ALL forms of it.
Buy an airplane ticket to Ottawa this winter and I will take care of the
rest (bed, food, drink, girls maybe ;-)
P.S., Don't tell me that you can't stand the cold weather... I heard that
before...
Hung.
