Hmm my "extreme board sports" are limited to

However you might find something of interest through http://www.lumitykki.net/ (the pages seem to be in Finnish only, but under "järjestöt" there are some associations' web pages...

Mountainboarders, as opposed to your common tame snowboarders (Montis Tabulapsus Regularis), might be a rarer breed here as we do not have "mountains" - but surely there are some who go to the Alps and what have you.

Cripes, I seriously assumed that mountainboarding would by definition involve snow - and very steep rides on the stuff... ie I thought it was the same as snowboarding but on mountains :lol: I did tell you that my boarding knowledge would be limited :wink: Well, you live, you learn. However I suppose those links still might help you!

Check out also the links on this (Finnish) page...

Haven't seen it here, but would be interested to give it a go. I have a snowskate which is good here in the winter months.
