Nice profile, thanks for putting it up. I see the video below was shot at Le Tour near Chamonix. Do you know if he has ever been able to kite in some area around Aiguille du Midi say below Helbronner on the French side or some place in Mer De Glace? It would be insane if someone launched off the access ridge below the Midi but might be a one way trip. I would think the winds would be pretty uneven through wind shadow in the narrow valleys, still it might be possible to kite in some areas if permitted? I've wondered about kiting in the area for some time.
