I haven't kited but have sailed, Id be conservative until yr confident of true wind in an area you pick.
The wind can shift quite a few degrees as wind funnels through differing mountain landscape also gusty (remembering you are at the bottom of the range, snow kiting is done nearer the top but I guess still has its challenges)
but I would think you could find good spots on a windy day.
The man to talk to is Marty at Snowy sheds in Cooma.
He is really experienced with kiting Lakes Jindy and Eucumbene.
Nice bloke too.
Tell him Spiersy sent you
I've tried when it was windy one day in winter a few years back when the ski lifts were all on wind hold.and all my kite gear was in the car.. went near east Jindabyne just straight off the beach in some park I drove past..
BUT OMFG it was so f*ing cold in even a thick wetsuit... never again even considering doing something that stupid again.... the wind was fine, a bit gusty and patchy in areas but wasn't by any means unrideable...
In summer, it would be nice I would think...
every time one I go past I think how awesome it would be on a foil...
