i have these sand dunes that are about 3 hours away from my house. i want to know, would skiing in sand hurt my skis? if it messes up the bottom, could i buy some kind of ski saver stuff?

the sand would probably fuck up your bindings.

haha, i saw people snowboard in sand, so i think its possible, but not with skis, if that sand gets inside the binding it could like seize it up and then your fucked. it would be pretty fun tho.

don't you keep old skis from when you were younger? perfect for such activities. Oh and yes it will fuck them up.

Did it last weekend, use your old shit because it fucks up the bindings pretty good and get all the wax off your ski. It also has to be a steep ass dune, but if you find the right spot its pretty fun.

go to goodwiil or a thrift store and pick up some old crappy skis and use them. I was planning on getting some to destroy.

I don't deny there are bad things in the US right now, hell, 51% of the country to be exact. But god damnit, our country being fat is NOT a problem. I do't give a shit how fat people are. hell, fat kids are harder to kidnap, that means our country is safer.

better then not doing anything at all. it would be cool to set up a jump tho...

it would be fun on a snowboard i bet.

A LESSON FROM A HARDCORE SMOKER:
if your really hardcore you can just smoke out of your hands. make a loose fist but keep your fingers together and pack the entire empty space in the middle with herb. then open up your pinky finger enough so that the herb doesnt fall out but you can light it. then just breath in from the top hole and ull get mad respect -eastar5

Get some cheap boards at goodwill/salvation or use old ass ones. Its a blast. We have this HUGE Sand Dune Natl park here... you can camp out and go ski by moonlight at 3 am.
