Downhill Desert Experience - Extreme travel
: Sandboarding vacations and wild adventures in South Africa.
We have extreme sports, camps, tour operators and outdoor
recreation in Cape Town.
For decades, people of all ages have been sliding
down sand dunes on some kind of plank or other, searching
for that elusive adrenalin rush that comes from mastering
the skill of riding a mountain with break-neck speeds &
consequences. Through the years Sandboarding has developed
till what it is now.
True Sandboarding is the art of standing with
two feet locked onto a board and carving arks down a dune.
The beauty of it is that you can control the board and speed
by turning, stopping and jumping with easy control of the
board.
Sandboarding has its roots
from the pure board sports of Surfing and Snowboarding. Sandboarding
offers the exhilaration of Surfing and the freestyle
manoeuvres of riding the snow, all with the pleasure of staying
dry and not freezing to death! (O.K. so we don't have lifts
but one ride will keep you running up for more).
The best part about Sandboarding
is that it is easy to learn and accessible
to the absolute beginner – so fear not, Adrenaline
is just a slide away! It is also the best way to learn the
fundamentals of Snowboarding as the basic principles are the
same. Our expert boarders will show you just how easy it is!

Sandboarding in Africa and uses the latest
Snowboard technology to ensure safety and ease of learning.
