Zorbing is the latest extreme sport from New Zealand. It

involves rolling around in a ball or zorb three meters in diameter. It requires no more skill than a hamster running in its wheel as centrifugal force keeps the zorbonaut pinned inside the zorb. Although zorbonauts roll downhill at speed of 50 km per hour, the air cushioning inside means they do not risk hurting themselves too seriously.

WHITE-WATER RAFTING
White water rafting is an extreme sport where an inflatable

raft or a canoe is used to travel across very rough, fast flowing water. The word “white” refers to the color of the water when it is turbulent. It is a physically demanding kind of sport.

Слайд 7

SNOW RAFTING
The most dangerous of all the new winter sports is

snow rafting. You sit in a rubber boat and sail down a mountain at great speed - and you can`t control the boat!

Слайд 8

BASE JUMPING
Base Jumping, sometimes written as B.A.S.E. jumping, is an extreme

sport where participants jump from fixed objects and use a parachute to break their fall.
The acronym “B.A.S.E.” stands for: Building, Antenna, Stan, Earth – four categories from which base jumpers can jump.

Слайд 9

BUNGEE JUMPING
Bungee jumping /ˈbʌndʒiː/ is a very extreme sport that involves

jumping from a tall structure while connected to a large elastic cord. The tall structure is usually a fixed object, such as a building, bridge or crane; but it is also possible to jump from a movable object, such as a hot-air-balloon or helicopter, that has the ability to hover above the ground. When the person jumps, the cord stretches and the jumper flies upwards again until all the energy is dissipated.

Слайд 10

ICE CLIMBING
Ice climbing. As the name suggests, practitioners of this sport

climb glaciers with the aid of an ice axe and a great deal of other specialist equipment. As well as all the equipment, incredible physical and mental strength are essential, together with the ability to work closely with other team members in the most dangerous situations.

Слайд 11

SKYDIVING
Skydiving consists of jumping with a parachute out of an airplane

for recreation or in competitions. Competitive events include jumping for style, landing with accuracy, and making free-fall formations. Modern skydivers typically free-fall from 3657 m above the ground until 762 m, where they open their parachutes.
