I went out for a board to fit my vacation plans. Something that was not too expensive, easy to bring along on a flight, light to carry, durable in any conditions, gives a great grip, and most importantly - psyches me out!
Went to the shop that was the closest and cruised for a while, looking for suitable sneakers (which I found). Paying for the shoes I asked for a board that would handle being beaten, that wasn't too big nor too heavy. The person behind the counter looked at me, looking quite puzzled. "I think we might have one of those still." He went to get my board. Looking at it like a cat watching a plate of cream coming closer, I squeezed the board in my hands and nodded eagerly.
"I can give you a discount." He said.
"Oh, that's good."
"Yeah, I mean it's been around for quite some time now, it's a bit worn out."
"That's fine."
"You'd pay half price?"
"Sure." As I paid for the board he looked at me curiously.
"May I ask what you are gonna do with it in the middle of summer?"
"I'm going sandboarding!"
There is no easy way

That sounds like a blast! I've just gotten into snowboarding and I've wondered if sandboarding was popular.... have fun! Great post.
Thanks! I'll do my best! I'm really bad at snowboarding, but they do say sandboarding is easier. I believed them :)
