Sand-Boarding

[Jeh]

Has anyone experienced Sandboarding here in Dubai? 

Any prefered locations which are easily accessible without breaking any car parts to reach there?

Not looking for high dunes but reasonably tall to slide off. 

Kindly share your experiences and videos/pics etc if any.

There are lot of these tour operators who do this. But you can just buy this board from Souq.com for around 750dhs and start your own adventure. But as mentioned in that post its not a sport for everyone as it is too demanding and time-consuming. 

But its fun to do it on smaller dunes, few of my friends tried it already.

@Jeh we saw some people sand boarding on top of Pink Rocks which is easily accessible from the back road all the way up. Just worried about traffic though specially with the weather getting better and more clubs opening their doors to more off-road drives.

There are many dunes of you take the road from Maliha to Tawi Nazwa, you can find any suitable dune, leave your car by the road side and enjoy some sand boarding.

Interesting stuff and I have only seen it from a distance. Join me @Jeh in some of the drives I'll drive you up and you can teach me how to do it.
