Ski-sailing
If you want to try ski sailing, this is the place for you. The flat mountain plateaux make it possible to build up high speeds.
Skisailing is the mountain sport that combines two traditional Norwegian sports - sailing and skiing. The newly developed SkiSail-concept gives you the possibility of sailing against the wind, over white snow-covered hills or lakes, and even up steep mountains.
SkiSail has, among other adventurers, been used by Borge Ousland on his Trans Antarctica expeditions: A light breeze will bring you wherever you want, over the hills. From 6 m/s you are finding yourself sailing up steep mountains. With experience you can exceed speeds of over 50 mph!
SkiSail is easy to handle. You control the direction with your skis. The sail is controlled with a gentle touch on the telescopic control bar used as a joy-stick. SkiSail is based on modules which means that a zipper is used to reduce the sail area by disconnecting the flaps in the rear of the sail. The flaps? angel of attack can easily be adjusted as you skisail. Patent pending.
Instruction is available and you can hire the sails.
