Can you ride a mountainboard in Wildwood ?


I wonder if that area is ok for Landboard ? or the sand is too soft to ride with a mountainboard

SOmetimes- if the wind is blowing right you can board at the tide line like ab said- but must still be aware of the allustrus (sp?) soft spots. I am usually able to at least ride some on a board but it is definetly better for a bug, unless the wind gods smile upon us.

Mood: More kiting !!!

WELDNGOD .... you try to jump over that pile of sand ? or just hoped you will force thru ?

.... At low tide you have plenty of hard solid surface to ride on , and with on shore winds you can ride most of day ... Area near base camp usually gets lots of hight buggy traffic , so by Friday most sand is pack down and usually rideable with Landboard

Absolutely! My son won't get in a buggy, but loves being on a board there. (Unfortunately, he won't be there this trip :no: )

I didn't even make it to the pile. About 2 ft away the sand turned to quicksand. I had to jump out of the bindings. LOL

Watch this video. https://vimeo.com/41257031 . Just before 1 minute you will see Wildwood boarding the way I saw it.

I guess I am spoiled by the hard pack at Sunset but when I visited WBB I was THRILLED that I could borrow a buggy and enjoy that beach with the " appropriate " ride. That beach is huge with larger tires. Restricted to a narrow strip and low tides with small wheels.

At my age the soft sand and low winds made riding on small wheels seem a bit like work. :embarrased:

But it was 18m Phanny HEAVEN in a little buggy ! :cool:



Kites: 2.5m Profoil , Quadrifoil XL kitesurfer, NPW 5 Danger.
Flexifoil: 1.7m Sting, 4.9m Blade 3, 9m Blade 2.
Flysurfer : 19m Speed 2 SA, 7m Pulse
Peter Lynn :18m Phantom, 15m Synergy, 10m Synergy, 1200 Farc, 460 Sarc, 130 Tarc, 5m Peel, 4.2m , 6.4, 8.5 C-Quads, 3.5 LS2 single skin.

Rides: Flexi / P.L. Frankin'Buggy , Shaped + straight skiis, sand skis, Coyote blades. Core 95 ATB. RKB R2 ATB .
