Six Extreme Sports You Should Try

LOOKING FOR A NEW WAY TO GET FIT? WANT TO TAKE IT UP A LEVEL?

Adrenaline sports don’t just mean bungee jumping and skydiving. There’s a whole list of extreme sports with safer-than-they-sound entry-level sessions.

So don’t just dream of rock climbing or white water rafting. Strap into your safety gear and dive straight into the world of adventure sports.

1 SIGN UP FOR BOULDERING

Not ready for the skyscraper rock faces? Find a local climbing center and sign up for bouldering. It’s rock climbing but on shorter walls. As well as the thrill, the best extreme sports challenge your body. With a focus on agility and core strength, boulderers are some of the most impressive athletes around.

2 FAT-WHEEL BIKING

Find freedom with fat-wheel biking. And we mean freedom – the off-road, all-terrain tires have deep grips so you can ride anywhere you want (within the law). Keep your cool on the mountainside with Degree <> and you’ll be protected right to the finish line.

3 WILD SWIMMING

Have easy access to a wild swimming lake? Swimming might not seem top of the extreme sports list but these rocky pools and waterfalls are more demanding than you’d suspect.

4 CITY WITH PARKOUR

Run, jump, and climb your way through the city with Parkour. It hones your agility, balance and strength in one. Try a class to go through the basic movements safely. Keep the focus on your moves, not sweat – a spray of Degree <spray> will help keep you dry and protected.

5 GO CANYONING

Like your playground complete with jaw-dropping scenery? Go canyoning. With expert instructors, you start at the top and jump, scramble and abseil your way down the waterfalls and gorges.

6 WHITE WATER RAFTING

Craving a hydro-charged adrenaline rush? You can find instructor-led white water rafting in most national parks and rivers (complete with equipment hire).
