Snowboarding Without the Snow

How many people can say they invented a sport? Very few, and Jason Lee is among them. In the early 1990s, Lee and a buddy built a snowboard/skateboard hybrid with a little mountain bike thrown in, dubbed it the mountainboard and created what would become mountainboarding. The board sport offers the thrills of snowboarding, but you don’t need snow. Or mountains even. We’ll let Jason show you where and how it’s done.
