In contrast to the last time when we discussed Best NSync Music Videos, today we are talking about Glamis or Glamis Sand Dunes. So, if you are a fan enjoy videos below, but if you don’t know what it is let me explain a bit about this destination. The dunes of Glamis are known as the most popular off-road place situated in Southern California at the border with Arizona and Baja California del Norte.

The peaceful and silent dunes get overcrowded at holiday weekends when hundreds of thousands of visitors get together in such famous areas as Oldsmobile Hill and Gecko Road so that to ride up and down on quads, dirt bikes, rails etc. Such a fascinating show draws a huge number of spectators. Now, as I have already promised I offer some breathtaking Glamis videos.

Glamis stops are so popular and successful due to fun-filled gatherings that include family-friendly activities such as a scavenger hunt, bon fire, movie premier, a Show and Shine contest, KidZone, Karaoke Party, raffle, an ATV certification course, dune clean-up, and other.

The Glamis Sand Dunes are also known as Imperial Sand Dunes Recreation Area. According to researches, more than 1.4 million fans arrive here annually. The area occupies 72 km long and 10 km wide. Lots of you know the name of Algodones Dunes that can be translated from Spanish as Cotton Dunes, but I bet those who crashed there wouldn’t agree.

In spite of enormous popularity of the Glamis Dunes, there are lots of arguments and discussions aimed at restricting or even closing of the recreational area. Naturalists are meant to shut Glamis down because of an endangered plant. They have already shut some dunes and mean to continue, which caused burst of indignation from part of fans. But today when they are free and open to public, enjoy them and live your life with Glamis!

As far as the last Glamis events are concerned, they took place in March 2009 and in August 2009. Glamis fans may also mark their calendars for future Gordon’s Well in November 2009 and Dumont in January 2010. But now take your time and enjoy more Glamis videos.

It all began in the 1950s with the first skateboard ‘Roller Derby’ – a straight board on wheels, which actually had nothing common with the modern skates. Kids and teenagers loved the thing though they used it as a means of transport that required minimum skills of balancing and avoiding the obstacles on your way. But Larry Stevenson took it more seriously and displayed skateboarding as a new sport.

In the 1960s skateboarders organized into teams and fist skateboarding competitions took place. Some skateboarders performed great stunts and the skateboard went through great improvements that made performing the stunts easier and even more diverse. Nowadays the skate is not just a deck with truck and wheels; there are a lot of optional components that make skating more exciting: rails, slip tape, lappers and so on.

What considers the skateboarding tricks – they are numerous: riding on two wheels (“wheelie”), high jumping over a bar and landing on the board again (”hippie jump”), no-hands aerial (“ollie”), kickflips – almost anything you can imagine, up to jumping over a moving car like in this video.

Professional skateboarders invented their tricks and opened special skateboarding schools. In 1995 Extreme Games were opened and since that time skateboarding began to gain its popularity all over the world
The attitude towards skateboarding culture nowadays is very discrepant. Some people picture it as rebellious, non-conforming and highly dangerous; others think it to be the way of life of urban teens, which has nothing to do with drugs and crime.
