I think it's not even a joke. The angle of that hill is very steep, and being on a board you can gain speed very fast while being unable to stop it. It would be more of an accomplishment to not break your neck. Sitting down on the board without being strapped down onto it is probably safe though, and i guess that's the way 90% of the visitors go down on it. I did that in Australia a few times on some sand dunes. Still rough but you (probably) won't break your neck that way.

Tom, I grew up in Wales. In the 60's we still had working coal mines, and coal tips were everywhere. As a child I and some friends used to use corrugated iron sheets to surf down the tips. It was great fun to do although of course very dangerous. I wish I had a video camera back then, because I do not think there is any photographic record of our pastime.

This makes me think of one of the issues we have here in Oklahoma. In the city of Pitcher they piled up mining waste that actually was toxic and when it rained it would get into the water supply. If I remember right, the city was evacuated and abandoned in 2008 due to this issue as well as a tornado that ripped through the city. The city is considered one of the most toxic places in the United States and it’s definitely an interesting sight. You can travel out there and have a look, there’s just no water (due to its toxicity) or power.

Oh i remember this mountain, when i was 16, we took a school trip there. It was about a 30 minute drive by bus, after getting off everyone immediately raced to see who could climb it the fastest. Afterwards we went swimming in the nearby swimming pool. Those were the days.

There's another similar "mountain" in central Poland - Góra Kamieńsk. It's a byproduct of a major coal mine nearby. You can also go skiing there, but it works with regular snow, not sand. Still counts as "skiing on a pile of mining waste", though xD
