Motorsports, travel, and random photos from around the world. Rally driver, car #91 in ARA National L2WD. Life is too short to just sit around and wait.
Getting all the way to the top of Breckenridge is a bit of a hike... and even then, we got turned away due to a bad lift near the true very top. Nonetheless, the ride down was one of the most memorable snowboarding experiences I've ever had. My buddy Patrick and I were pushing through a bit of exhaustion here - so I appreciate him grabbing the photo.
This is a bit tourist-y, but ever since I was a kid I've wanted to do this. It's both a lot like snowboarding and nothing like snowboarding: your basic skills transfer over fine, but sand doesn't shift like powder does and it's not easy to get speed back if you waste it. You also do this in socks, not boots. Greatest bit was just sending it off a massive dune - pretty sure I have a video floating around somewhere.
