Welcome to the new Mancunian alpine sport of car boarding:

Here we see the T-bar lift. You can just about make out there is a rider either side of the car

But this is NOT an exclusive sport. Oh no, you don't even need a board to partake. Just trainers. And a car.

These guys were topping 30mph, and flying off piste as the car cornered. Ermmmm, like wow. And yikes. Try not to slip under the wheels eh?

Here's the non Mancunian elitist version of the sport. Note added health and safety features such as use of rope, gloves and a snowboard:

Done it with mate mountain boarding hanging onto the wing mirror. A bit dangerous actually. Safer to tow with a rope.
