Extreme Sports

Extreme Sports is the first book ever to catalogue and describe the mad, mad world of extreme or adrenalin sports. Opinions vary about which sports are worthy of the accolade "extreme", but in this book a lack of rules and a surplus of danger are deemed to be enough to earn a sport its place.

Whitewater rafting, B.A.S.E. jumping, cliff diving, sledding, snowboarding, surfing, sky flying and rock climbing will all be covered, plus a host of other sports activities that would have any self-respecting life insurance salesperson rushing to up your premium. The book is divided into three main categories depending on the type of terrain the sport utilizes - air, land or water.
