FAQ
What are some examples of extreme sports?
Here are some extreme sporting events.
-
BASE jumping -- This is the most dangerous extreme sport. BASE stands as building, antennae and span. It involves jumping from a height and then parachuting down. BASE jumpers must pass rigorous exams before they can attempt the stunt.
-
Climbing -- This is another extreme sport. Climbing involves climbing trees, cliffs and rock faces. Protective gear is often worn by climbers to prevent falls.
-
Freestyle skiing -- Freestyle is considered to be the ultimate extreme sports. Freestyle skiing mixes snowboarding and ice-skating. You need speed, agility, and balance to do freestyle skiing.
-
Paragliding -- Paragliding, which is similar to parachuting in that paragliders fly through air instead of dropping to the ground, is called paragliding. Paragliders typically launch from mountainside. They then control the plane with ropes that are attached to the wings. The pilot will pull the rope that is attached to his harness to help him land. The parachute automatically opens.
-
Surfing -- Surfers use waves of water to travel along a sandy beach. Surfers generally stand upright while surfing. They hold onto their boards with both hands.The board acts as a surfboard. The board lets the surfer propel themselves forward. When the wave recedes, he paddles back out into deeper water.
-
Snowboarding -- Snowboarding is another form of extreme sport. Snowboarders glide down hills using specialized boards. Special bindings are also used by snowboarders to hold their feet to boards. Snowboards come with wheels to make it easier for riders to slide down the slopes.
-
Skateboarding -- A combination of skateboarding, rollerblading, and skateboarding. Skaters use unique skateboards in order to navigate streets with obstacles like rails, ramps, and even subways. In place of rollerblades, skateboards are utilized.
-
Skiing -- The oldest form of winter sport is skiing. "Snowshoe" was the original meaning of ski. Skiing is still popular because it's a great way of getting exercise.
Skiing has evolved to include many more types than it did when it first began.
There is also cross-country skiing, alpine ski, and freestyle ski.
Alpine skiing, however, is the most difficult. Cross-country skiing makes it easier. The easiest is downhill skiing. Freestyle skiing mixes all three.

How To
How do I begin snowboarding for beginners?
This section will cover how to get started in snowboarding. Everything from where to go to purchase equipment, how to learn and what to do, will be covered.
Let's start with some basic definitions...
"Snowboard"- A board that attaches to your feet and allows you to ski downhills. It typically has two edges (front and back), which form the board's shape. The front edge is wider than the back edge to help control speed.
"Skier" means someone who uses skis/snowboards to get down hills. Skiers wear boots called "boots," pants called "pants," and helmets called "helmets." They protect their heads from falling with helmets.
Skiing - A sport that involves riding down hills on skis. This is done either on natural terrains, such as mountains or on man-made terrain like ski resorts. Skiing requires special equipment. This includes skis, poles. bindings. boots. jackets. gloves. hats. sunglasses. socks.
"Riding Down Hills" - To ride downhill, you must first learn how to stop yourself from falling. Use your legs to push the ground with your back leg, while pulling your front leg forward and your front leg up. Keep doing this until your speed is reached. The faster you travel, the harder you must pull your legs up and kick them forward. Once you have reached your desired speed, let your legs relax and allow them to come together. The process can be repeated if you wish to slow down.
After you have learned how to keep yourself from falling to the ground, it is time to determine how fast you want. There are many ways to measure speed. Some prefer to count laps around a mountain, while others prefer the distance from one turn and another. To practice speed control, you can either time yourself or count laps. Practice makes perfect!
Once you are comfortable with slowing down or speeding up, it is time to learn how turn. To turn, just lean forward towards the side you want. Lean too far, and you will crash into the ground. Too much and you'll be unable to turn. You can learn tricks once you are able to turn properly. Tricks are fancy moves performed on the slopes that require precise timing and balance. These include flips, spins and cartwheels.
There are many types of tricks. For example, some tricks involve jumping over obstacles, tricks that involve flipping over obstacles, and tricks that involve spinning over obstacles. Each trick comes with its own set of requirements. To jump over a thing, you might need to spin 180° midair, before landing on the other end.
There are many types of tricks. For example, some tricks require precision and accuracy, tricks that require strength, tricks that require agility, and tricks that require finesse.
Tricks aren't easy to master. It's not easy to master tricks, but once you do, you can use them any time, anywhere. While skiing is often considered to be a sport for adults only, kids love to play on the slopes. It's great to watch kids do amazing tricks and slide down hills.
