desertskyz Posted December 16, 2008 Share Posted December 16, 2008 I used to snowboard a long time ago, but have wanted to try a sandboard. Has anyone ever done it a Dumont? I have watched a lot a videos on it and it looks fun but I don't know if I want to invest the money into something I could potentially kill myself doing. Maybe I should just let this brilliant idea go. I ain't no spring chicken anymore. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheAlaskan Posted December 17, 2008 Share Posted December 17, 2008 Dude, I wanna try it ....I was looking at buying a board a couple years ago, but can't afford it now. Do not want to ruin one of my snowboards trying it though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

desertskyz Posted December 17, 2008 Author Share Posted December 17, 2008 I sucked a skiing, but I love snowboarding. I just want to try it in the sand. A regular snowboard won't work, they are made of the wrong stuff. They say a sandboard should have a Formica bottom finish. I can get a board for about $150.00, but then you gotta get boots, bindings, a good insurance policy and some other stuff to keep the bottom of the board slick. Hell, I have a Tatum chairlift already in stock. Take me to the top and watch me roll down. Face plant Ouch! Whoops! Face plant, damn it! Ouch!. Maybe staying in the car, having a few beers around the fire, Hog Heaven sammiches, is where I should keep it and leave the boarding to the youngsters. I still think it would be fun. Wooooo Whooo!

TeeDuner Posted December 19, 2008 Share Posted December 19, 2008 I tried it once at dumont....and it sucked. Crashed half way down the hill, ended up with a bad headache and sand in every orifice. Ruined the rest of my day at the dunes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
