Land Paddling in SE Michigan looking for some good downhill runs. Clawson/Royal Oak area is like an MC Escher painting, all uphill all the time. Would like to do some good carving.

Interesting.... I wasn't aware of this. Hudson Mills Park north of Dexter has a couple of nice 3 mile paved trails. Also some nice paved trails at Kensington Park (between Brighton and Novi).

but, knowing nothing about this sport, this might not be what you're looking for.

Response by poster: Can't remember what link posting rules are but if you google "land paddling" and look at the video results, 4th or 5th down is Xterra Adventures....... saw that on tv a month ago and having never set foot on a long board or skateboard in my life decided to try it out.

It works every muscle in your body and its quite fun.

Paved is a must so ill definitely be checking out those spots HuronBob. Thanks much.
