Sand-skiing is a newly developed sport in Jordan. Its fun lies in its charm, that is, stepping on a skateboard and sprinting down can make people get a more satisfying life, but don't play at noon because the temperature of sand is very high. Let's take a look at the fun of sand skiing.

The fun of sand skiing is sand skiing, not sand climbing. Do you think snowboarding can only be shelved in summer? Soaked to the skin, take it to the beach and experience the feeling of flying in the sand. In the desert of Jordan, just fly bravely once!

I am running in the desert of Arabia now. I'm accelerating. I don't know the specific speed. Is it15,20 or180km? Anyway, I'm starting to be really "fast"!

Leaning to the left, I turn left; Turn right and I'll turn right. Bend my knees, I keep accelerating ... the world of mortals is flying behind me. This picture is so cool! A melody flashed through my mind. It's "The Train is Leaving" by a second-hand rose-I liked it very much when I was in China.

I came to Jordan to attend a friend's wedding. His family and friends tried to stop me from choosing such a route: take a bus that ends in Iraq or the West Bank of Jordan River and get off at Wadi Lahm (a quiet town between the two trouble spots). "This is the most beautiful place on earth."

Omar, a relative of my friend, told me, "Do you know what to do there? Surfing in the desert! " Omar's desert surfing is what we call sand skiing, and it is one of the fastest-growing extreme sports in the world.

Although there is historical evidence that the ancient Egyptians were the first race to try sand skiing, the modern sand skiing movement began in California in 1950. At that time, a group of surfers camped on a beach, and then suddenly came up with an idea to pull the roof of a car to the top of a sand dune, and then sit on the roof and slide down from the top.

As time went on, some people tried to stand on the hood and slide down from the sand dunes ... Soon, the sport spread and became a good way for skiers to hone their skills, regardless of climate and season.

Now, people can enjoy sand skiing in 500 fixed places in 37 countries, such as Australia, Peru, Namibia, and of course the United States and China.

This sport has just emerged in a country like Jordan, and I have realized its charm even more: stepping on a skateboard and sprinting down … can make them get a more satisfying life.

I have tried some skateboards: I can keep my balance on the wake board, and I am also good at PSP skiing games. Now, however, I may have to rely on my "professional guide" Gasan to tell me how to ski.

${FDPageBreak} Gassan and I met on a camping trip, and then I drove into the depths of the desert in his four-wheel drive.

Bedouins who want to rent camels to us can only see the exhaust of our cars. "Do you want to listen to some music?" Ghassan asked me, "celine dion, bobby brown, or a small town story?" Wow! Is this the Middle East? It is the center of the universe!

God, it's really hot here. We are like ants surrounded by sea urchins under a magnifying glass in sunny noon. I'm sure the temperature here has exceeded Fahrenheit 100 degrees.

I walked on the selected sand dunes, and I could even hear the sound of brittle skin. Every painful step, my boots are deeply immersed in this hot quicksand, and my calf muscles are burning violently.

This is the stairs to hell! When I finally reached the top of the sand dune, I took a few deep breaths and looked around. Above my head, there is a milky white Wan Li clear sky; At my feet, it is the magnificent sand color of the earth. Night after night, the cool breeze smoothes the disturbed sand surface during the day.

I am whispering to the most beautiful, passionate and pure part of nature; She teased my nerves with the coming dangerous journey. Then, Gassan showed me how to tie his shoes to a skateboard, and I began to suspect that he was not as "professional" as I thought. "

Your skateboard is tied backwards. "I told him," Look, the words on the skateboard are upside down. "However, before I could continue to argue with him about the advantages and disadvantages of skateboarding, Gasang had screamed and rushed down the sand dunes.

A second later, the edge of the skateboard hit the wheel parked at the bottom of the sand dune, followed by another strange call. Now it's my turn. I stood on the downhill slope, with my center of gravity forward. After sliding for half a foot, I stopped. This is really weird.

I kept pushing forward ... I stumbled halfway up the mountain. When gassan kept coming up and rushing down; I tried again and again ... and finally I got some hints. Just like other skateboarding, really, it just needs some minor adjustments.

Your instinct will tell you to lean forward; However, if you want to move, you must raise your center of gravity. If you want to speed up, just kick the back of the skateboard in the opposite direction and swing your shoulders backwards, and the sliding speed will be smoother.

However, you should pay attention to the rocks and bushes in the desert. In obstacle speed skating, they may be a chance to jump beautifully or turn quickly. It is also possible to plunge you into the lovely sand.

${FDPageBreak} Just as I was cruising in the sand, a stone broke into my "route". This is not a big stone, but what should I do? Jump over?

Or go around? Just as I was considering the possibility of various ways to move forward, I suddenly felt that I had fallen into a huge hourglass. And my sweaty skin, which was almost scorched by the sun, was covered with thousands.

It may also be hundreds of millions of soft yellow sand, and I can even taste the delicious nature between my lips and teeth. "Great!" Gasan laughed at me from above and shouted, "You are a professional sand skater now!" " "

Gassan's reminder

1. Actually, you can sit, kneel or stand, and basically do whatever you want.

2. Avoid playing at noon, because the temperature of sand is very high at this time.

3. When you accidentally fall down, because the sand is soft, as long as you try to keep your body soft, you will naturally stop after rolling a few times.

There are special skis for sale in the market, and you can also replace skis with smooth and hard bottoms.

When walking in the desert, don't forget to take sunscreen and mineral water.

The fun and fitness of sand skiing 2. Matters needing attention in sand skiing

Riding posture

There is no fixed slide on the whole sand surface, and children under 1.2 meters are not allowed to ride.

When riding, the skateboard has no seat belt. Mainly to prevent tourists who turn over halfway from being tied to skateboards and causing more harm.

When riding, step on both sides of the lower edge of the skateboard, hold the wooden handle inside the middle of the skateboard with both hands, and lean forward slightly. Do not move during the descent.

Remedial method of plate deviation

When the skateboard is seriously deviated to the left, you can scrape the sand surface on the right side with your right hand. According to the deviation, control different correction time and intensity.

If the skateboard is seriously deviated to the right, you can scrape the left sand surface with your left hand. According to the deviation, control different correction time and intensity.
