Wait, wait, wait - not a gag. Seen a movie called Apocalypse Snow recently and after seeing a monoski being ridden by two people at the same time, one oin front of the other - I fancy a go.

Live in Europe and trying to bag an old board for next season.

Guess that answers my question - it's just me!

Anyone in Europe reading with a mono they don't want - ping me - long shot...:)

Monoskiing is sick. I remember seeing McConkey laying out backflips over a park jump on one back in the day. Hopefully you find someone man, those things are a rare but awesome commodity.

Yeah you got to see it to believe it. "Sailing" inflatable boats down the mountain and jibbing off everything no matter what they have on their feet.

It all looks so slick but it must have been a monster to film.

There are 4 films in total - Les Arcs recently did a modern version.

Yeah that's the one - can't remember which though. I think the guy actually lands on the train as he underdoes it a bit.
