Didn’t they use to longboard ski in Johnsonville?
Yes and they still do, the Plumas Eureka Ski Bowl in Johnsonville hosts the annual World Championship Longboard Ski Races, which recreated the 19th century sport. It’s the only place in the world where authentic longboard racing exists. Dating back to 1860, it is the site of the oldest recorded sport skiing and racing in the western hemisphere. Early day longboard ski racers raced down the 2,600 foot run at speeds up to 90 miles per hour.
