The volcano we boarded down wasn't hot (the other one that had lava on it was DEFINITELY hot).

I did wipe out while boarding, and smacked face-first into the side of the volcano which resulted in a big mouthful of rocks (mm crunchy) and freckle-esque scrapes all over my nose for a few days, lol. It's also amazing how fast you roll down the volcano after flying off your board.
