Subject: Propulsion on sand

What are the inexpensive alternatives to buggies for beach 
terrain?  Has anyone tried using snow skis on sand?

Thanks

Aaron

Yes, I've seen snow skis. I've also seen grass skis (little track-like
things; looks like you have plastic half-tanks strapped to your feet),
though better to use off road variables with big wheels two to a side.
I've seen bare feet, also simply sitting on the sand (substantial trousers
recommended), all the above on purpose. Of course, there's always dragging
on your belly, but a heads-up attitude is recommended...
