Mountai Mountain Boarding
Mountain Boarding :
Mountain boarding, also known as Dirt boarding, Off-road Boarding, and All-Terrain Boarding (ATB), is a well-established if little-known action sport, derived from snowboarding. A mountain board is made up of components including a deck, bindings to secure the rider to the deck, four wheels with pneumatic tires, and two steering mechanisms known as trucks. Mountain boarders, also known as riders, ride specifically designed boarder cross tracks, slopestyle parks, grass hills, woodlands, gravel tracks, streets, skate parks, ski resorts, BMX courses and mountain bike trails. It is this ability to ride such a variety of terrain that makes mountain boarding different from other board sports.

They are generally from 90–110 cm in length, and can be made from a range of construction methods and materials. For example, high specification boards may be made from composite carbon and glass reinforced plastics, possibly with a wooden core, similarly made to a snowboard deck. Basic decks are generally made using laminated wood pressed into shape, comparable to a longboard deck with larger dimensions and a different shape. There are variable characteristics such as flex, weight, shape, length and tip angle that can be catered for in custom or stock boards from a variety of manufacturers.
Trucks
Trucks are the components made up of a hanger, damping and/or spring system, and axles which attach the wheels to the deck. They also have the mechanisms required to allow the board to turn.
