Sandboarding
Yesterday Chris, Steven, Brendon , Debbi, and I started the day with a healthy dose of Age of Empires, which quickly turned into underhanded alliances, backstabbing and general nastiness, but fun was had by all.At about 5pm the Wongs, Reenen, Hanna, Charles and I headed out to Benoni to do some sandboarding with the PureRush guys. We met up with Debbi's brother Jason already there. I knew those old mine dumps had to be good for something.
It's basically snowboarding, just a bit slower and a lot more sand. Highly recommended!
Some videos:
A successful run [1.95mb]
Slightly less successful [3.13mb]
