Hi, I'm looking for an old video where we see kiters climbing the Alps of something similar with their kite versus others that climb with their feet
(or skis don't remember), and we see that the kiter go up and down many times before the ones with their feet are not arrived on top yet.
Thank you
Matt

That is funny that you mention that video. I Know exactly what video you are talking about and have been looking for it as well. I was planning to
use it to try and talk some of my avid back country riding buddies to take up kiting. Any help would be awesome.
Thanks

I think in might be Chasta that you are talking about. I remember something like that.

I remember that video and talk about it every time ppl ask about snowkiting 
In the meantime, check this one out:

I can't find that one, but there's video of Chasta summiting Mt. Etna via kite, which has done a lot to get some of my alpine buddies thinking I'm not
crazy!

i think you're talking about an old josserand video from late 2009.
It's just them JAMMIN on some mountain in the alps.
It's so funny because you just see the faces of the people skinning in, (backcountry mountaineers always think pretty highly of themselves) and they
are just BLOWN away at how small they seem.
My favorite is when they parakite over them BACKWARDS from like 50ft overhead.
They look so disheartened! <3
I think they got up the mountain and free-rode down three times before the people got up.

both are on vimeo.
Boulgakow/Josserand accounts and super kite day are amoung things I have burned into my soul.
