sandboarding
Desert slope riding
Sandboarding is sliding down sand dunes on a board, similar to snowboarding but on desert or beach terrain.
The sport uses specially designed boards with slick bases that glide over sand: We went sandboarding in the Sahara.
Popular at dune destinations worldwide, it requires waxing the board between runs.
