Great video. Ice and the kitewing is what got me hooked on the wind and into then eventually into kites for lower wind and snow conditions. For
high wind on snow there the kitewing is great. In any wind on ice the kitewing is amazing.

Ok, how did they get the under the ice footage? I thought at first it was ice above the water but then at the end when he pokes the very thin ice
with a pole, there are bubbles. And even more of a how to. How did the camera move under the ice following the skater?

Great video! Thanks so much.
I see stuff like this and I am reminded that the sports we engage in are just points on continuous plane of wind sports. There are lots of variations
on how the hold our wings/kites/sails and how we interface with what part of the earth be but fundamentally it's all sailing. The possibilities seem
limitless.
