Alpo Posted January 15 Posted January 15 There is a 1954 children's book by Troy Nespit, called Sand Dune Pony. "Sand Dune Pony is the story of a boy named Pete and a wild mustang pony set in what is now Great Sand Dunes National Park in Colorado." They go skiing in the sand dunes. One guy rides the pony, towing the other guy on skis, among the sand dunes. I assume this is the same thing except that it's on snow? 1 Quote

They allow creative dance in the Olympics. I have been tempted to seek sponsorship and compete doing my famous dance of the tree. I just stand still to hard rock music as a fan puts a handful of breeze in my hair. 4 Quote
