List of extreme sports
May 24, 2008
My list of extreme sports:
BASE Jumping: is very extreme activity that includes a parachute (can be used both parachute and wingsuit) to jump from fixed objects, with unopened parachute like skydiving. The acronym “B.A.S.E.” stands for: Building, Antenna, Span, Earth – four categories of objects from which B.A.S.E. jumper can jump.

Bodyboarding: is a kind of wave surfing. But instead of surfboard u have a rectangular piece of hydrodynamic foam.

Shape of board depends on riding style, and rider himself. Wiki says that bodyboarding is fastest growing extreme water sports all over the world.


Canoeing: extreme canoeing (a.k.a whitewater canoeing or whitewater racing). These extreme guys race specialised canoes and kayaks down a dangerous whitewater rivers. There is also such a class like Extreme Canoe racing, that includes much more complicated rapids, leave it for real pros



Extreme Motorsport: includes activities like supercross, motocross, freestyle motocross.
Activities Travis Pastrana is good at

I haven’t seen people die from paintball but I know that the field regulations are very strict… that is probably the reason why no deaths are reported … you want to try playing paintball without a mask?

ok chris clearly you have never seen anybody freerunning because a lot of the moves they pull off are really dangeros if you mess up and it requires a lot of stamina and physical strength.
On another note although paint ball is fun as hell i do agree with you that its not really an “extreme” sport.

try playing pro paintball … need physical strength … stamina … lots of training … and like I said try playing paintball without a mask and see what happens …that’s why field regulations are so strict

Paintball is not extreme.
If you think paintball is extreme you were probably scared of running under the sprinklers as a kid.
