SO WE HAVE VOTED!!! DO YOU AGREE?
OUR TOP 5 craziest extreme sports voted by us.
Ok… so our TOP 5 chosen Extreme sports are
WING SUIT FLYING
YES…. YOU HEARD IT RIGHT. WING SUIT FLYING!!! THIS SPORT FIRST CAME AROUND IN THE EARLY 90’S HOWEVER OVER THE YEARS THE SPORT HAS REALLY TAKEN OFF!! THE SPORT SEE’S PEOPLE LITERALLY LAUNCH THEMSELVES OFF LAND, OR OUT OF A PLANE AND GLIDE BACK DOWN TO EARTH REACHING SPEEDS OF 396.88km/h SOUNDS SIMPLE RIGHT!!! SO IF YOU FANCY BEING A FLYING SQUIRREL THIS IS THE SPORT FOR YOU.
VOLCANO SURFING
WE USUALLY SEE SLEDDING, SNOWBOARDING OR SKING ON SNOW, BUT IF THATS NOT EXTREME ENOUGH FOR YOU,
TRY VOLCANO SURFING DOWN THE MOUINTAIN OF AN
ACTIVE VOLCANO COVERED IN ASH!!! SO IF THIS LIGHTS YOU UP!
YOU MIGHT FIND YOURSELF HEADING OVER TO NICARAGUA AND GIVING IT A GO!! IF YOU DO, DON’T FORGET TO TAG US IN YOUR PICS AND VIDS.
FREE DIVING
HAS TO BE ONE OF THE MOST PHYSICAL SPORT OF OUR PICK DUE TO ITS DEMANDING TRAINING, WITH DIVERS SOMETIMES HOLDING THEIR BREATH FOR OVER TWENTY MINUTES! THE WORLD RECORD IS CURRENTLY A MIND BLOWING 24.37 MINUTES!
we have been practising this week and managed just over 1 minute!!!
( DO NOT TRY THIS AT HOME………………………….
ONLY TRIANED PROFESSIONALS PERFORM STUNTS WITH THE RELEVANT SAFTY PRECAUTIONS IN PLACE & SATFY SUPPORT TEAM…)
WHITE WATER RAFTING
N WELL WHAT CAN WE SAY? ONE OF THE SAFEST EXTREME SPORTS ON THE PLANET!! AND CAN BE SHARED WITH ALL YOUR FRIENDS!! ACROSS THE GLOBE ANYONE CAN TAKE PART, WITH NO EXPERIENCE NEEDED. JUST TURN UP AT AN EVENT ANYWHERE ACROSS THE GLOBE AND TRY IT OUT!!! HERES SOME OF OUR MOST FAVOURITE PLACES TO GO WHITE WATER RAFTING……OUR FIRST PICK HAS TO BE THE TERMINATOR @ FUTALEUFU RIVER IN CHILE… THEN WE HAD TO THINK HARD FOR THIS ONE, CHILKO RIVER IN BRITISH COLUMBIA… THEN A MUST IN ALL LISTS TO TRAVEL TO FOR WHITE WATER RAFTING IN THE UK WOULD BE THE RIVER TRYWERYN IN BALA NORTH WALES & ZIMBABWE’S MOST FAMOUS WATER RAFTING HOT SPOT ZAMBEZI RIVER.
BIG WAVE SURFING
THE LARGEST WAVES RECENTLY SURFED ARE FROM PRAIA DO NORTE IN NAZARÉ PORTUGAL….SURFERS HAVE TO BE TOWED INTO THE WAVE TO GATHER ENOUGH SPEED TO CATCH THE WAVE. THANKFULLY NO ONE HAS EVER DIED AT THIS DANGEROUS SURF SPOT… BUT IF YOU GET IT WRONG, EXPECT TO BE SLAMMED DOWN BY A BREAKING WAVE UP TO 50 FEET / 15.5 METERS DEEP ONTO THE REEF BELOW!! SOMEWHAT CRAZY WHEN YOU THINK ABOUT IT!!! HOWEVER MOST COME OUT UNSCATHED AND ARE TOWED TO SAFTY.
