I'm heading to the cape next week - where is that happening. I got an old board that needs the rust worn off....
Alright, just watched the video, have more vertical in my back yard.... I'll stick to the pool and beer in a couple of weeks.

I didn't. I made sure I grabbed an old pair of skis that I didn't use anymore (same for the boots, unless you want to have bit of sand in them forever). As stated in my TR link, the sand and biddings = not good. After a few runs, the old Tyrolia bidding had issues.
The slope dune on Lake Erie was about 300ft vert (not sure - I wrote it in the TR). Based on the pics above. German place looks real good, Cape looks too flat. I was sand terrain that was as steep as the bowl at Tuckerman.

That first picture would cause Snowlover to have a panic attack.
On a side note, I don't think I will be sand skiing this weekend. I'm concerned the rain over the next couple of days will make the sand too manky.

Look at what I wrote on my TR. I skied 3-days and the one in the rain was the first and best day.
Brings new meaning to the term rock skis.
