Wow – Sandboarding/Sand Sledding Videos Worth Watching

Posted by – March 4, 2009


I have always wanted to try sandboarding or sand sledding.  I imagine that you would get sand everywhere, but I think it would be worth it, especially after watching these videos.

The people sand sledding in this video are FLYING down that dune.  I couldn't believe they were actually going 75 mph.  I can't imagine going that fast down a sand dune!

The dune in this video, called Cerro Blanco, is HUMONGOUS.  I had no idea that there were sand dunes out there that big.  It looks like it would be a long, long, long hike up, but an unforgettable ride down!

Make Your Own Caster Board

Make your own caster boardWant to make your own caster board?

Making your own caster board like a ripstik or a wave board looks easy after watching this video, especially if you already have a skateboard deck lying around.

You'll need a few cheap supplies, a screwdriver, drill, and a saw if you want to cut the deck in half and make it more like a ripstik/wave board.

The end product may not be a spitting image of a ripstik, but it's simple to make your own caster board and it doesn't take too long.

You can follow the step by step tutorial on how to make your own caster board, or take a look at the video below.
