Title: EXTREME

EXTREME
An extreme sport  is a popular term for certain
activities perceived as having a high level of
inherent danger, and that are counter-cultural.
These activities often involve speed, height, a
high level of physical exertion, and highly
specialized gear or spectacular stunts.

Ice climbing, as the term indicates, is the
activity of ascending inclined ice formations.
Usually, ice climbing refers to roped and
protected climbing of features such as icefalls,
frozen waterfalls, and cliffs and rock slabs
covered with ice refrozen from flows of water.
For the purposes of climbing, ice can be broadly
divided into two spheres, alpine ice and water
ice.

Wingsuit flying is the sport of flying the human
body through the air using a special equipment,
called a wingsuit. The wingsuit creates the
surface area with fabric between the legs and
under the arms. A wingsuit may be referred to as
a birdman suit or squirrel suit.

Windsurfing is a surface water sport that
combines elements of surfing and sailing. It
consists of a windsurf board usually two to four
meters long, powered by the effect of the wind on
a sail. The rig is connected to the board by a
free-rotating universal joint and comprises a
mast, wishbone boom and sail. The sail area
ranges from less than 3.0m2 to more than 12m2
depending on the conditions, the skill of the
sailor and the type of windsurfing being
undertaken.

Snowboards are boards, which resemble a wide ski,
with the ability to glide on snow. Snowboards are
differetiated from monoskis by the stance of the
user. In monoskiing, the user stands with feet
inline with direction of travel , whereas in
snowboarding, users stand with feet transverse to
the longitude of the board. The profesionals
snowboardings need a especial equipment to
realise this sport.
