Equipment
Simply listed:
1. Kite (probably 3-5 meters to start, on a bar system)
2. Harness
3. Snowboard (twin-tip) or Skis
4. Cold Weather Clothing
5. Helmet
You can find the bottom three items at your local sporting goods shop. I believe that the retail world starts selling winter gear around October. The kite and harness are most easily found online (if you have a local kite shop, go there---because speaking with someone in person is worth the sales-tax).
I suggest practicing with your kite frequently: find an open field, clear of both upwind and especially downwind obstructions. Fly your kite and get a feel for its power and how it handles. A kiteboarding instructor is worth the money... I guarantee losing your kite or bodily damage is more expensive than an instructor.
Good luck!

I second the kiting instructor part, it's worth it.
