The Inertia

Wings are generally something you see on the water. It’s a little bit of fun that’s been gaining traction of late, going from a select few to a whole new subset of surfers. But if there’s one thing that people who love the ocean and people who love the mountains have in common, it’s that they will try new things. They’ll take something from one thing and squash it into another. Skateboarding came from surfing, snowboarding took tricks from skateboarding, and surfing is taking tricks from both. So it makes sense, then, that the Sickos (a new-ish YouTube channel) would take a wing to the mountain. And you know what? It worked. Not in any real spectacular way, but I’d be willing to bet that in the next few years or so, this becomes a little more common.
