Bungee jumping: Taking the plunge
December, 20, anno domini 2004 was the day I finally put into practice a plan I had had for several years already: to do a bungee jump. Being in New Zealand, the paradise for tough adrenaline junkies, I felt that the setting was just right. There was only one problem: I am naturally a terrible chicken. Therefore, I made sure there was no way for me to bottle out again. I told several friends about my plan, and one of those friends even came along with me to perform a jump himself. |

The art of Kitesnowboarding
If you enjoy kitesurfing, making high jumps in moderate to strong wind, you definitely want to try kitesnowboarding. Kitesnowboarding is identical to kitesurfing especially if you use bidirectional board in kitesurfing. The difference is that you are likely to enjoy kitesnowboarding all by yourself on a snowy field or a frozen lake, there is nobody there to tell you not to jump high or to go fast and you don't have to wait 1/2 hour for the ski lift nor having to pay for it. |

How extreme is power kiting?
For many people, their first experience to power kiting is usually from a piece of media; photo, video, or brochure. Sometime this can be a real turn off as it may portray an extreme adrenaline sport minded athlete doing incredible jumps, tricks and possibly speed. True those people exist in the sport of power kiting and they've likely been riding for quite some time, but it all has to start somewhere. Of course what would the ads be like if it didn't look like something really exciting? |
