FAQ
How is parasailing different from parachuting?
Para-gliding involves flying above the ground using a harness attached to a small sail. The harness allows for you to fly. It protects you from falling through the air.
To fly, you don't require any special equipment. Simply attach yourself to your sail. Then, you can take off. As you gain altitude, the wind pushes against the sail. This allows it to lift you.
You glide along the ground and keep moving forward. Your momentum will propel you forward until the cable ends. You then release your grip to fall back to the ground.
Once you are ready to go again, attach the sail to your body.
Parasailing continues to grow at a rapid pace. 2013 saw parasailing reach more than 1,000,000. This is almost twice the number of people who participated in parasailing in 2008

What are some extreme sports?
Here are some examples of extreme sporting events:
-
BASE jumping -- This is one of the most dangerous extreme sports. BASE stands for building antennae, span and earth. This involves jumping from a cliff, and then gliding down with a parachute. Before they can attempt this stunt, BASE jumpers must pass stringent tests.
-
Climbing -- Another extreme sport is climbing. It involves climbing rock faces, trees, cliffs, and other structures. Climbers often wear protective gear to protect themselves from falls.
-
Freestyle skiing -- Many consider freestyle skiing the most extreme form of skiing. Freestyle skiing blends snowboarding with ice skateboarding. Freestyle skiing requires speed, agility and balance.
-
Paragliding -- Paragliding is similar to parachuting, except that paragliders fly through the air instead of falling to the ground. Paragliders often launch from mountainsides. The paragliders then pilot the plane using the ropes tied to its wings. If the pilot wants to land, he pulls the rope attached to his harness. The parachute opens automatically.
-
Surfing -- Surfers ride waves of water to travel along the ocean floor. Surfers are usually upright when surfing. They hold onto the board with both their hands. The board lets the surfer propel themselves forward. When the wave recedes and he can paddle back into deeper waters, he does so.
-
Snowboarding -- This is another extreme sport. Snowboarders glide down hills using specialized boards. Special bindings are also used by snowboarders to hold their feet to boards. Snowboards are usually equipped with wheels that allow riders to roll down the slopes faster.
-
Skateboarding -- This is a combination skateboarding and rollerblading. Skaters use their unique skateboards for navigating city streets and rails. In place of rollerblades, skateboards are utilized.
-
Skiing -- Skiing is one of the oldest forms of winter sports. The word ski originally meant "snowshoe." Skiing is still popular because it's a great way of getting exercise.
Skiing has evolved to include many more types than it did when it first began.
There are alpine skiing, cross-country skiing, downhill skiing, and freestyle skiing.
Alpine skiing is the most difficult. Cross-country skiing, however, is easier to learn. Downhill skiing, however, is the easiest. Freestyle skiing mixes all three.
What happens if someone is trying extreme sports but falls off a mountain?
Extreme sports can cause you to break bones and even your neck if you fall from a cliff.
This injury could be fatal. Falls from a height higher than 30 meters (100 ft) you can die.
What companies are most likely not to sponsor extreme sport?
Sponsoring extreme sports events, like BMX racing, skating, and snowboard competitions, is a lucrative business venture that often involves large corporations. They are also more involved in the communities where they operate. Coca-Cola is a sponsor of many sporting events in North America. The company also sponsors youth programs and camps at the national and local levels. Coke also sponsors the annual Coca-Cola Rock'N'Roll Marathon in New York City. Around 100,000 runners come from all walks of the world to participate in this event.

How To
How do I begin snowboarding for beginners?
This section will discuss how to start snowboarding. Everything will be covered, including what equipment you should buy, where to travel, and how to teach.
Let's start with some basic definitions...
"Snowboard", a board that you attach to your feet, used for skiing down hills. It usually has two edges (front & back) which make up the board's shape. To help control speed, the front edge is usually wider than its back.
"Skier" - Someone who rides a ski/snowboard down hills. Skiers have boots called "boots," trousers called "pants," helmets called "helmets" and helmets called “helmets.” Their heads are protected by helmets when they fall.
"Skiing" means riding down hills on skis. This can be done on natural terrains such mountains or man-made, like ski resorts. Skiing requires special equipment such as skis and poles, bindings or boots, gloves, goggles, sunglasses and socks.
"Riding down Hills" - You must learn how you can stop yourself falling before you can ride downhill. To do so, you use your legs to push against the ground at the same time as pulling your back leg up and kicking your front leg forward. Keep going until you reach your desired speed. The faster you travel, the harder you must pull your legs up and kick them forward. Once you've reached the desired speed, you let your legs come together and relax. When you want to slow down, you just repeat the process.
Once you've learned how to prevent yourself from colliding with the ground you will need to figure out how fast. There are many ways to measure speed. Some people prefer counting laps around the mountain. Other people prefer looking at the distance between each turn. You can practice controlling your speed by measuring your speed using timing or counting laps. Practice makes perfect!
Once you have mastered slowing down and speeding up, it's time to figure out how to turn. To turn, you simply lean your body to the side you wish to move towards. Lean too far, and you will crash into the ground. Don't lean too far and you won’t be able move. Once you're able to turn correctly, you can start learning tricks. Tricks are fancy moves you perform on the slopes. They require timing and balance. These include flips, spins and cartwheels.
There are many kinds of tricks. You can do tricks like jumping over obstacles or flipping obstacles. There are also tricks that require you to spin over obstacles. Each trick is different. To jump over a thing, you might need to spin 180° midair, before landing on the other end.
There are many tricks. There are many types of tricks. Some require precision and accuracy. Others require strength.
Tricks are difficult to master. You can learn tricks anywhere, any time once you master them. Although skiing is often considered an adult sport, children love the slopes. It's great to watch kids do amazing tricks and slide down hills.
