SAND MASTER PARK

Let's step into a realm where all things that do not exist
are born. It's called 'Imagination'. The place where ideas and possibilities
are formed into an image in our very mind. I invite you to exercise your
imagination a bit and visualize 40 acres of clean fine grained sand dunes
nestled in the heart of Oregon coast rain forest in the charming little
city of Florence.
Now imagine that you could take that sand and shape it into castles like
a kid at the beach and layer it with soft dry sand then sand board all
over it? Imagine having the ability to shape cliffs, giant bowls, chutes,
towers and what ever your imagination can think of on a grand scale. What
could you make with 40 acres of dunes? Answer... Sand Master Park. This
is a dream come true for sandboarders around the globe, a showcase to
present to the world as hard proof that sandboarding has arrived.
Deacon Matthews had the desire to build an amusement park for most of
his life. Having a real love for kids as well as a lot of sand, Deacon
and wife Hilary started to imagine the possibilities of opening their
dunes for the public's enjoyment. There were many ways the dunes could
be used and anything seemed possible. Deacon and Hilary began to do the
homework and found one activity that was too appealing to pass up. Sandboarding.
Last spring Sandboard Magazine journeyed to Oregon with the Venomous team
to scout the coastal dunes. The dunes that were being ridden up this point
were public and could not be sculpted. Oregon's dunes were more technical
with more variations than the giant dunes of the desert. It was the closest
thing to a sandboard park in the natural but it wasn't the vision of a
sandboarders imagination.
