2 An extreme sport (also called action sport and adventure sport) is a sport, which has a highlevel of inherent danger for people who try it.These activities often involve speed, height, high level of physical exertion. Now, we’d like to tell you about Sandboarding.

3 Sandboarding is a recreational activity similar to snowboarding that takes place on sand dunes rather than snow-covered hills. For some, it involves riding across or down a dune while standing with both feet strapped to a board, while others use a board with no bindings. But riding without strapes much more dangerous. It is less popular than snowboarding, but on the other hand, dunes are normally available all year round with numerous locations compared to winter-only snow sports.

4 The sand board base is much harder than a snowboard. It built with special base materials now being made for this sport. To glide in the sand, the board bottom is often waxed, usually with a paraffin-based sand board wax, before a run. After use, the bottom of the board looks lightly sanded.

5 Modern sandboarding was popularized in the U.S. by the efforts of Jack Smith and Gary Fluitt in California in the early 1980s. The pair were featured in numerous surf films such as Adventures in Paradise, and in magazines such as Action Now.
