The brilliantly bizarre sport of Bearded Ladyboarding has been fashioned to raise awareness of the unusual capabilities of an extreme sport gadget, the Oregon Scientific action cam, and sees bearded men in wedding dresses attach cameras to the gear like a helmet or beard, in the ultimate, masculine display of the “fun stuff you can do with a camera.”
You can now Bearded Ladyboard via an online game on ladyboarding.com and watch an infomercial on YouTube.
Bearded Ladyboarding first came into existence over a millennium ago when Vikings in isolated parts of Northern Europe would competitively race rudimentary wooden boards down steep hills as part of an annual festival to celebrate their masculinity. The sport has only latterly become known as Bearded Ladyboarding in reference to its history and the combination of bearded men mountain-boarding in flowing gowns.
This unique sport lived on in isolated rural communities for the next thousand years.
