8 Adventure Sports You Must Try Once At Least
5. Skydiving
All your childhood fantasies of flying like a superhero can come true with this adventure sport. It requires you to jump off an aircraft, and then land on the surface of the Earth with the help of a parachute. Of course, those few seconds when the parachute takes time to open up and you have nothing to hold on to seem like decades in your head with the fear rising up, but the feeling of victory and accomplishment is unbeatable when you successfully touch the ground!
6. White Water Rafting
Row your own inflatable boat in the roughest of waters, fighting against the force of the water and the rocks and other hurdles that come in between! There is matchless adrenaline rush in this adventure sport, and it is a definite must-do in life.
7. Ostrich Racing
Whether it’s officially an ‘adventure sport’ or not is highly debatable, but riding on the back of an ostrich is definitely worth the experience. These kinds of races are extremely popular in Africa. And considering the Ostrich has its eyes almost on the either side of its head, giving a sort of 360 degree view to it, chances of the animal getting distracted and leading to unexpected results are quite high!
8. Parasailing
This one is like flying over a water body. You are connected to a motorboat technically, but are flying with the help of a parachute. It’s slightly different from paragliding where the person is free flying from an aircraft. Both parasailing and paragliding are good to experience before you move on to skydiving and bungee jumping.
So which one of these adventure sports are you going to try soon? Try and include these in your vacation plans, depending on whether you are planning a beach, hill or city holiday. Thanks to their wide popularity, most adventure sports are now available at a lot of locations all over the world.
