Sandboarding

The Premier Location for Sandboarding Supplies in the San Luis Valley

Kristi Mountain Sports is the premier location in the San Luis Valley that rents and sells Venomous sandboards and sand-sleds.  These boards are hand made in Oregon specifically for use on sand.  Whether the sand is wet or dry our boards work phenomenally better than plastic sleds.  When used with a specially formulated sand wax (included in rental) they slide down the dunes very quickly.  These toys are the superior sliding devices at the Great Sand Dunes National Park and are sure to make a great experience even better.

Frequently Asked Questions

The Essentials:

  • Sandals or Shoes – The sand gets extremely hot on sunny summer days and will burn the soles of your feet if you don’t have a barrier between your foot and the sand.  Socks are also recommended.
  • Clothing – Check the weather and plan accordingly. Generally shorts and a t-shirt during the summer months. We recommend long sleeved shirts and pants on windy days.
  • Water – Remember, you’re at 7,500 feet – drink!
Gold Standard Additions:
  • Sunglasses or Goggles
  • Sunscreen
  • Bandanna or BUFF to cover face
  • Backpack
  • Rain Gear
  • Zip-off Pants
  • Camera – Leave the point-and-shoot and the SLR at home (sand will seize the lens). Cell phone and GoPro cameras are best suited for the Dunes.
