World's longest sand skiing descent.
World's longest sand skiing descent.

Tag along for a full ski descent of Toro Mata Sand Dune in Acari, Peru. The 5,905 feet descent is the longest in the world. Takes about 9 minutes top to bottom but thats if you’re really skiing fast, this dude topped out at 43mph:

There are several outfits that take skiers and snowboarders to the top of Toro Mata and trips are all around $250 USD. Not far from the popular destination of the Nazca Lines, so if you’re in the area consider a side trip for a little sand shredding.
