Are you a thrill-seeker? If you spend your life chasing the high that comes pushing yourself to the limits and experiencing everything the world has to offer, then chances are you have a bucket list with everything you want to do and are working your way through this list with vigor.
But if you are new to pushing your boundaries and want to start giving on edge a little bit more, then this post has some great ideas of high-octane sports and activities for you to try.
Drifting
Drift cars can provide you with the ultimate high-speed adrenaline rush. Drifting is the art of driving cars at high speeds while the back wheels are sliding, all while you regain control. It isn’t for the faint-hearted but those looking for the ultimate rush. This is a great hobby. If you are serious about drifting, you can choose to buy one of the best drift cars to help you get started.
Ice Cross Karting
Ice cross karting is a twisting and turning activity in which you get behind the wheel and do tricks while navigating an ice-driving course. Anyone may zoom down a smooth road, but driving on frozen lakes forwards, backward, and sideways provides true thrills! Head to Finland for a truly authentic ice cross karting experience.
Zero Gravity Flights
Always wondered what it feels like to go into outer space? With the news that Richard Branson successfully traveled into the upper atmosphere in his quest to pursue commercial space travel, taking a zero-gravity flight can be just as exhilarating. It can give you that ultimate weightlessness feeling without the risk of training required of astronauts.
Wingsuit Base Jumping
Most definitely not one for the faint-hearted, wingsuits are designed from durable materials that allow the wearers to sail through the air until the time comes for them to pull their parachute. The unique design of the suit gives you wings and allows you to fly effectively. Your parachute will then bring you safely back down to the solid ground.
Extreme Hiking
There is hiking, and then there is extreme hiking in some of the world’s most treacherous yet breathtaking terrains. Think off the beaten track, scaling the side of seemingly vertical rock faces with nothing but a thick rope bridge to walk across. The best part is that there are extreme hiking trails or areas worldwide, so you get to take in some of the most stunning scenery while raising the stakes during your hike.
Volcano Boarding
Sandboard down slopes while appreciating the spectacular landscape of Nicaragua’s Cerro Negro Volcano. As you speed down the 1,600-foot summit, the adrenaline-pumping ride is likely to set your heart beating. This takes snowboarding to new heights, quite literally, gives you a thrill like no other.
When pursuing high octane and extreme sports, remember to make sure you are in the best physical condition to undertake the sport and follow all guidance and regulation to ensure your safety and that of those participating alongside you.
