After accomplishing the highest mountain pass in Morocco on skateboard, the three are graced with a wonderful tailwind and smooth pavement to the small city of Ourzazate. Strapping on Sporting Sails for the evening and catching magical tailwinds does not foreshadow what Adam, Paul, and Aaron are about to encounter. Skating the Vallee Du Draa to its dead end in...

It was for the most part flat, with a steep uphill over a bridge providing a challenging climb followed by a downhill section a little after the starting line.
14 minutes of Longtreks! Our terrible trio goes from being lost in the souks of Marrakech to combing the High Atlas mountains in search of the Lost Peak “Tizi n’tischka”. This episode, enjoy the sights, sounds, and smells (scratch and sniff) of Marakech. Weave and wind the twisted streets, past riads, merchants, and snake charmers. Clean off the grime...
