the single most pointless and gheyest thing on the planet

I don't know Igg, but I reckon Mazda MX5s & little yappy lap dogs are a bit more gheyer.

So is anonymous man sex in public toilets.

Completely ghey circus ride - symptomatic of a nation in decline. *** central

To be fair though if It was a massive half pipe the size of a snowboard half pipe...but it went downhill a bit of a distance it would be heaps fun...like permanent sand boarding or something

From Extreme Sports Zone:

"The Brush ramp is safe..."

[brendo]

does wearing a helmet and elbow/knee pads give it its 'extreme' edge
good 'sport' for kooks that cant paddle, kooks that sook when they hit crete skating, and kooks that get scared going fast on a snowboard

[ajohnsen]

Kinda looks like grasping at straws, really.

Would love to see a whole bunch of Polish soccer hooligans smash everyone involved.

Webber's first phase design to entice backers for his wave pool???

[Nick Carroll]

what about that fcukwit and his water jet squirting machine, you know, the one that sucked water up into his backpack then squirted it out allowing him to bob around in the air.

THAT was fcuken epically ghey. edges brushboarding I think based on the pointless use of machinery.

A longgggg time ago there used to be a brush ski slope out the back of Warringah mall, the trick was to sneak in at night after closing and ride your beer carton to the bottom before the brushes ripped it to shreds. it was as high as the big slides at Luna Park, often we were too!

[Karlos]

There was a ski shop down the back of Mosman on Ourimbah Road years back that had one of those slopes to test skis on. It was like the stuff they have on the platfroms at the top of ski lifts & needless to say it was shithouse & really gave you no indication whatsoever if the skis were good, bad or otherwise. It was kind of the equivalent of testing a surfboard in Manly lagoon.

On the topic of non-snow snow skiing, I think the Grass Ski Park at Kersbrook embraces the sort of overt gheyness South Australia is famous for.

Somewhat incredibly it went out of business in the late 80's, not because it was like riding a pair of out of control lawnmowers laced to your feet down a muddy slope in the rain and fog, but because public indemnity became too expensive. This was mostly because the only thing seperating the end of the slope from a busy main road was a flimsy two-strand dropper electric fence, and several punters ended up impaled on the bullbars of passing trucks.

Can't remember where but I went to one of those grass skiing parks when I was a kid. Jesus it was difficult. Two tank tracks strapped to your feet that you could barely turn or get any real speed up on. Not surprised it never took off.

[Beanpole]

My one and only attempt at grass sking was at King Edwards Park in Newcastle. Someone had a set of those catepillar track ones stashed in the wardrobe so I took them for a go. Got up a bit of speed and then realised I had no idea how I was going to stop before I flew off the slope onto the road. Ended up just doing a bellyflop on the grass in front of the embankment above the road.

haha whats wrong with a skateboard if you can't surf or snowboard etc? you can get all sorts of skateboards that get close to feeling like snowboarding or surfing!

it'll get them all real good at poo-man stances, thats for sure
