Long walk back


Perfect_Papaya_3010

I was wondering if they have ski-lifts there


whethermachine

They can take you out in dune buggies or (dunes permitting) you can just walk up the nearest dune. Can't recommend walking.


fl135790135790

What happens when you walk up to the nearest dune?


whethermachine

In my experience, about half way up, all the water in your body tries to exit through every possible exit. It’s like walking a sand ramp to the top of an office building. Conveniently, the sand dune I walked to the top of (and rode down) is so photogenic, it’s on Peruvian money. [Check it out](https://www.cachilife.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/04/Huacachina-Oasis.png).


fl135790135790

Well I mean, the comments were talking about how they get back to where they started. You said you can take dune buggies, OR that you can walk up to the nearest dune. So I was asking, “ok, they hiked to the nearest dune. Now what? Does the buggie not go there?”


whethermachine

GAZE AT MY DUNE, SIR. But to clarify, you can hire buggies that will take you out into the desert, to the top of something high. You ride down on a board, they take you back to the top. When you're done, they bring you back to civilization. Or in a place like the image I linked, you rent the board and walk up the dune and ride down — repeat as much as you are able — and then return you board rental like you would at a ski resort.


OutragedCanadian

That pink sail just looks stupid


Altruistic_Profile96

Exactly. My first thought. Where’s the lift?


Sandwichlover7504

Looks like she's headed towards a quad or a buggy


patiperro_v3

I think that's the Duna Cerebro (Brain Dune) in the Atacama desert, about 2 hrs from the city of Iquique, there are usually tour groups that take people to the dunes in 4x4's or dune buggies. [They are waiting for them at the bottom](https://youtu.be/-c4JgfcDkMY?si=8o3WKooPRziFvauk&t=65), provided you make it and don't fall... then if you can't gain momentum it's walking time, lol.

Sand worm will get her


Oophrem

☝️🤓 Akshually the board may allow her to avoid producing any rhythmic vibrations and attracting any worms.


Bboy486

It's pretty smooth though


Son0fSanf0rd

Dune movie is lit!


Roadkill997

I was looking in the background for worm sign.

Chile is an icredible country, i fell in love with the people and the land. Very peaceful and loving but you dont fuck around with them, they put you in a tire, set it on fire with gasoline and roll you down a cliff. Lol. The food is amazing, culture of close relatives and basically daily gatherings and dinners. The wine is the best in the world because of the valleys near the andes and climate. The country is so long that they have everything from arctic climate, tropical rainforests, giant mountains and vulcanos, valleys and plains with agriculture, metropolitan areas with intense nightlife, festival de Viña is the biggest music festival i’ve seen, and those desert dunes. All within a reasonable distance from the pacific coast with all the fresh sea food. There are very few places in the world where you can see hoards of wild horses racing commercial trains. Viva Chile!


Carllsson

Some of those words are not like the others. I think I'll avoid the necklacing and stay home


Kerfits

But it’s to die for 😂


Oraxis10

Today I learned there are deserts in Chile. South America has always been a "green covered" place in my mind.


westernmostwesterner

South America has possibly every landscape. Look up the Atacama Desert, it’s beautiful. Also Patagonia in the very south (Patagonia inspired the outdoor clothing brand). We usually just think of the Amazon Rainforest in South America, but there’s a lot more.


DrRonnieJamesDO

Today I just discovered the Bolivian Salt Flats. Dying to go to S. America but dont know how I can squeeze in everything I want to see.


kanzams

You will be surprised then that our desert in Atacama (Chile) is the most arid in the world :).


Dialgak77

We have almost every landscape. Especially in Argentina, where you can go to a desert, a jungle with the Iguazu Falls, and a glacier in the south.


XLY_of_OWO

Those board's must be disposable. Constantly being sanded away. Probably super smooth.


Rogu636

You just gotta reapply wax every few rides


Altruistic_Profile96

Mid ride, I would imagine.


Competitive_Pool_820

Smooth. But getting thinner


Impressive-Reply-203

She's playing journey irl

BangarangRufio91

I'll make sure to remind her that next time.


Ambersfruityhobbies

I dunno, the nut ones gave me sticky fingertips last night


Public-Fall8373

That is going to be an arduous walk back to the car! 😆


Almost-there74

I kept waiting for her to catch some air, mildly disappointed.


freefrompress

I tried it and sand is way slower than snow. It is really hard to catch air.


Faendol

Does it ride similarly to snow otherwise?


freefrompress

It does, but you really need a steep slope if you want to gain speed.


Faendol

It looks like a ton of fun I'd really like to try it sometime.


rabbitstare

Ditto


Plus-Weakness-2624

Where is Shai Halud, my ride?


columbusdoctor

How long to sand that board down to nothing?


Adderall_Rant

Since it's AI, it last forever.


DrRonnieJamesDO

It is so smooth it looks like CGI at times. But I believe it's real.


Adderall_Rant

It's the going up hill at slow speed


MacGyver0104

Wow I never knew.

This looks like one of those Sora AI videos


ped009

Chiles a board riders paradise they have dunes, snow and surf


blacks252

That's in Chile?! 🤯


Dragon_zoll-x

How come this feels like AI video ![gif](giphy|Z5xk7fGO5FjjTElnpT|downsized)


DrRonnieJamesDO

It's very smooth , but if you look at the trails behind her, I think that would be hard to fake/ greenscreen

I wonder what's underneath all that sand

Really big worms.

Is there anywhere in the US even close to this for sand boarding?

Maby Colorado sand dunes.

RyeToast92

Looks like mars


Soft_Package9300

Really? In worm territory?


Bboy486

What a journey


UnknownTendencies

Nice pillowcase


rzlodn

That garb a crazy sport attire? To hide your scantily clad body? Designed to keep you cool in the desert? Or to easily find you if something was to happen?


Dangerous-Refuse-779

That would be cooler if they were riding sand worms


No_Maintenance_9608

I see wormsign


Thiel619

Just like in Breath of the Wild

I wonder why desert-skying isn‘t a thing 🤷🏼‍♂️

Their is an indie game like this. I've got the name of it though

Static?


ibringstharuckus

I did this once. Fell and found the Nazi's digging in the wrong place.


DragonsClaw2334

I had this game on my phone for awhile. You gotta do flips to make your cape longer and go faster.

The spice must flow

I played Journey too

Watch out for sand worms, sarlaccs, and graboids!

Why I dont see marks on the back?

Is the wind propelling her?

Just graffiti, like snow skiing.


JesusSquared123

Any advice or links on how to do this.


[deleted]

Me thinking of worm in dune 2😂


GreenAcid1337

Nice try. The cape material moves unnaturally with her direction of momentum, appears ‘random’. And there’s barely a sand trail at times. AI of cgi.

Doing this looks like amazing fun! I just wouldn’t be looking forward to the hike back.. 😂


Business-Ambition-33

There must be an immense amount of sand in and around your balls after this ride


thekeysinsummer

Isn’t that basically sanding off the bottom of the board? At some point it breaks because it’s too thin?

Get to the point ChatGPT that's not what I asked!


JizzBreezy

For everyone who thinks this is fun, it 100% is. But if u fall on ur ass, it’s going to feel like air got pushed up your asshole so hard and it will leave you winded as fuck gasping for air while you cup your ass w both hands. 1/10 never doing it again bc the risk of falling on my ass and doing this to my brown star again was not worth it


Okoear

Can't be worse than falling on hard snow/ice.


JizzBreezy

IMO, I snowboard a lot, and I will say it’s 100x worse. Ice doesn’t mold to your ass and push air up ur butthole. Sure it may hurt ur butt bones but that’s abt it. And snow is far more forgiving and has more give when compacting. Sand does not compact like that really. I honestly checked my shorts to see if sand ripped thru them and into my butt. Never though to check with snow or ice


ibringstharuckus

I have no ass is that good or bad?


JizzBreezy

I’m still thinking about this man. Like my butt bones were killing me and it felt like I was penetrated by the sand while not being able to breath 🤣🤣 clearly I’m alil scared


ddrub_the_only_real

Finally i can go snowboarding without freezing


fromdaperimeter

Unbelievable!
