Where is Samoens
Article.
The station in the Haute Savoie, continues to develop a sport that combines skiing with the flight. This sport, known by the name of Speed Riding and now practiced in different parts of the world already by several years, in the ski station of Samoens is practiced thanks to the snow-covered slopes present in a wide valley which guarantees security even for those who do not practice this sport as, for example, the skiers on the slopes. Moreover, the presence of a school of Speed Riding, allows you to start practicing this sport. Is not necessary to know or having practiced the paragliding because the sail is smaller and you ski a lot, the flights typically skim the snow and you don't go up in altitude. In the video there is an example of a race made with the technique of Speed Riding, a sport that combines the adrenaline of the flight with the opportunity to ski off-piste in places otherwise inaccessible.
