Extreme Sports

[screw_ball69]

Since I am going to Whistler tummorow I got curious, does anyone here do any sort of "extreme sport"

I do Snowboarding, mountain Biking, Roller Blading and Channel Surfing.

[DemolitionSquid]

Does Ultimate Frisbee count?

[The_Blade]

I tend to do anything extreme anytime:

mountain hiking
base jumping (once)
double black rombo and off-course :D sking (when ever I can because there's no snow here in Mexico)
everything related to a bike
surfing

Anyone with somthing extreme to do, tell me I'll try to add it up.
Eventually I will show pictures when I get the guts to show myself.

I guess I should add Sky Diving and bungee jumping to my list.

[KillaKhan]

Aww yeah whistler!!!!
Its only 1 and a half hours from here! =D
I don't have any extreme sports, unfortunately.

[screw_ball69]

8 hour drive for me.

[Zabimaru]

I do this all the time-
mountain hiking And I used to do mountain biking but not anymore.

I used to train Ski jumping in the past, for quite a few years. Had a personal record of 81m . But stoped when i had an acident where i made 6 barrel roles in the air (not intentialy :p) and landed on my wrist, and crushed it. :(
But i doubt many people here know what ski jumping even is. ;)

As a guitarist this makes me winch twice. I take it you recovered with no implications?

It tok me about 6 months of healing, but now it's ok no other implications , the only thing left is a scar on my wrist, from the operation. To bad it looks exactly like i would cut my wrist, so i have to hide it to awoid any stupid questions:p

[screw_ball69]

Strangely I've broken more bones than I care to count yet I keep on tossing myself down mountains.

I've been skydiving once, and lately I've gotten into airsoft (like paintball, only with blastic BB's instead).

Or is it more because that emo trend pretty much died last year and now you have to cover up your actions:p

[The_Blade]

Now that I look at it, I haven't broken a bone nor ligament nor tendon in my long life of extreme and stupid things (falls included).

PT I'm interested on Ski jumping but haven't found some place to do it freely. Eventually there was a course for this in Wistler but it is closed to the general public. You had to pay some courses before doing this. And I didn't had the time to do it.

Wish i knew what Wistler is, sounds like a fun place:). And if you are interested in ski jumping, hope you know what awaits you ;

Haven't done any "extreme sports" - just regular sports for me. I haven't ever broken a bone in my body & I'd like to keep it that way.


I've been skydiving once
What is skydiving like? I would freak out. ;o

Once I falled from the lift and it hurted as hell, but was back on the lift in 5 minutes after a superfast-adrenalinefed downhill ride.

And I have experienced similar jumps with the skiies but during outofbounds skiing

I believe I can take that if there's no rocks nor death ice nearby.

All I remember was it being incredibly loud from the wind and over instantaneously. When you start out you need to go tandem with another person (they're attached at your back and in control), so there's really no feeling of free fall because of it.

F that! This one seems better enjoyed from the comfort of my office.

Suffered from something similar during basejumping. Had to share my parachut with an instructor, untill basejumping became illegal in the state for risks.
