sandboard

Dune riding plank

A sandboard is a board used for sliding down sand dunes, similar to a snowboard but designed for dry, granular surfaces.

The sport resembles snowboarding but typically requires waxing the board's base for speed on sand: We rented sandboards and spent the afternoon on the dunes.
