Watch: Video Captures Snowboard Plummeting from Gondola - Our Worst Nightmare
Whether it was a misjudged placement or a sudden gust of wind remains a mystery, but one thing is clear – the snowboarder's worst fear had come to life. The tense video captures the rider, leaning perilously out of the gondola window, desperately attempting to save their beloved snowboard as it teetered on the edge of the rack.
As his friends watched with bated breath, the inevitable happened: the snowboard took the plunge, leaving the snowboarder in sheer despair. The board began its treacherous descent down the mountain, sliding and carving a path of its own.
For snowboarders, this moment strikes a chord of fear that resonates with every trip up the gondola. The possibility of losing your cherished board out of that little rack is a nightmare that haunts many. The next time you load your snowboard onto the side of a gondola, remember this video and take that extra precaution, because you never know when your snowboard might decide to take an unplanned adventure of its own.
