AND HERE ARE SOME REAL ONES:
"I was reading through the kindle version of my favourite extreme sports magazine looking for an exciting new pastime to take up (because honestly, naked dodge ball and ninja star golf are getting a little boring) when i came across a listing for the little-understood sport of yak skiing."
Mountainboarding, also known as dirtboarding, offroad boarding, grass boarding and all-terrain boarding (ATB), is a well established if little-known action sport, derived from snowboarding. A mountainboard is made up of components including a deck, bindings to secure the rider to the deck, four wheels with pneumatic tires, and two steering mechanisms known as trucks. Mountainboarders, also known as riders, ride specifically designed boardercross tracks, slopestyle parks, grass hills, woodlands, gravel tracks, streets, skateparks, ski resorts, BMX courses and mountain bike trails.
