ATB Monster

After few attempts of boarding on local beach I am almost positive that my weight (195lbs) will always stop my ATB with wheels deep in a sand ..... so..... there it is .... huge turf board with removed brakes and ATB bindings ..... hopefully those wide tires help me get going on next occasion .....

love to see it in action. shoot a little video to show how it works. my core 95 doesn't float me either in soft sand. I wonder about the flexboard because of the bigger wheels but I never tested it in soft sand.

Holy balls that board is massive. How does that thing do on turning?

wide tires might help,but that high COG is gonna be interesting when side pull is thrown into the mix. If you can't ride your board at the beach. You need to ride on the "low tide hard pack" and stay away from the loose stuff. If you are riding on the low tide hard pack, then you just have that loose grainy kind of sand that I hate. Good luck w/ that turf board, watch those ankles!
