I have not seen the "snowboards" but there is something similar
based upon windsurfers (a surf board with a sail on it, definitely
something to try!).  skis are attached under the board and the
person stands on top of the board. The speed you can pick up
is supposed to be fairly large.  It is not done downhill, but
only in wide open basins, etc.  Is anyone personally familiar
with such beasts?
