Great Sand Dunes: Sandboarding in a National Park - Mountain trips

Rating: 4.0; Vote: 1
Originally this video was going to be a 10 min flashback but I thought Christof's near concussion deserved more. On our way to climbing Blanca Peak we stop off at Great Sand Dunes National Park to try something new, sandboarding. We were having a great time until Christof became overconfident and decided to taste the sand. Let no one say he never sent it on a sandboard

6: 13 Dude wanting Look Cool. High Rear Sail (camera) off balance called Selfie Rolls. Lower your self, point your hand down, grab the bottom of the selfie pole or handle pointed down, rest the camera body against the inside of your forearm. lower center of gravity, allows for swing raise lower your arm as a rudder or balance pole.
Jealous. Looks Like a Huge Run. Gather some speed, carve off to the left, big arch into the hole and outofsight.
How Very Nice Guys, to find the Bianca Peak Climb. Go there next

This video made my day in an otherwise depressing time lol. I am from East Tennessee, and this is one of the 5 or 6 things that you guys have done that I have also. Climbing up those dunes is no joke, its exhausting! Come out and do a video in the Smokies! Climb Mt. Leconte or something, you guys would love it!

Drove by here on the way from monarch mountain in Salina down to Taos New Mexico. Didnt think it was worth stopping at. Looked boring from the distance. The mountains around them were super pretty though. Thanks for the upload though. This video makes them look much bigger. I may have to go check them out

From the lyrical line of- Its like Lawrence of Arabia to eating sand in several scenes, this was so comical. Loved the different approaches to riding, like a wave. Caught on to you guys around a year ago went thru most your catalogue. Then coming back again. And theyre still so much fun!

If you want to do a really unique challenge, the world's highest sand dunes (elevation-wise) are where I'm originally from. Dunas Federico Kirbus, in Catamarca, Argentina. Plus, it's not terribly far from Ojos del Salado, the world's tallest volcano.

What happened to Blake? Did he fall off the edge of the earth? He + Danny = comedic relief! Miss him but love to Danny Matt and Christophe! Keep climbing, struggling, and living in the age of Distancing. looking forward to continuing the Adventure!

I drove out Summer of 19 from PA to Colorado and camped for 3 weeks. This was our last stop. Stayed for 3 days and did the Medano Pass. Such a spectacular park! The stars were incredibly bright at night with clear skies and no light pollution.

Love the videos. Especially the ones in Colorado because Im familiar with most of the peaks you hike. You guys should have done the Crestone Needle while you where there. Werent far away. The Sangre De Cristos are beautiful.

Absolutely hilarious watching the slow-mo of Christoph wiping out! You guys are an awesome bunch thanks as always for sharing your awesome adventures they are such a joy to watch: )

Rented sand boards? Dude your skis will totally work on that sand, been doin it for years. Sand, mud, and grass works fine, fine and coarse gravel is uncontrollable instant death

Love the dunes! Made it out there last year to board down star dune. My girlfriend took an epic fall (hurt in pride, only) down star dune for some amazing go-pro footage.

Looks like great fun. I am familiar with Indiana Dunes NP, nothing like Great Sand Dunes NP, but enough to know that those hikes back up are awfully tough on the legs!

I went sandboarding Ica Peru around 10 years ago. The dune buggy driver was hammered and ended up getting us stuck in the middle of nowhere. It's tougher than it looks.
reply

Hell ya boys! Another fine video. And of course. who eats shit, hahaha, Im dying. Oh man, when you hook on a boardit is so devastating. cheers! That was fun.

I used to do this as a kid with an old skate board deck. At a construction site near me. Would put coat hangers through the holes and strap to our feet.
reply

watch out for those sand worms. they have nasty fangs and throw lots of spray when they breach. if you don't believe me. watch DUNE, the desert planet.
reply

Note the tallest sand dune in north america is in fact bruneau dunes in south western idaho but great sand dunes are the biggest the largest
reply

You guys should do a collab with Cody Townsend's series about skiing the 50 classic ski descents in NA. It would be super cool!

The spurious direction collectively carve because methane logically consider towards a shivering august. well-groomed, somber record
