Mountain Boarding For Two
Mountain boarding - the newest and wildest extreme sport to hit the UK has arrived. You and a friend will first be kitted out with proper mountain boards and a full safety kit, then it's onto the ATBA approved nursery academy for your lesson with a fully qualified instructor. You can expect to be versed on all the basics of this fantastic sport and how to handle the board. With your confidence building you can challenge yourselves to the slalom training course, racing at speeds of up to 40mph. If you really get in the swing of things, you could even progress to the freestyle park with ramps ranging from 1ft to the 'Big Daddy' 5ft jump.
