go to extremes

john hancock tells the story of some of your favorite extreme sports.

whether it's a jaw-dropping move on a skateboard or raw speed bmx

there's no doubt that extreme sports have taken off in a big way lately

twenty five years. some need snow, some need wheels, but they all share

the element of danger is usually combined with acrobatic stunts.

the american television sports network espn hosted the first extreme games

(now x games) in 1995, he coined the phrase "extreme sports". it's kind of

because they are often considered different from the old, established sports.

however, some older, more traditional sports such as freestyle, skydiving,

surfing and water skiing are also sometimes considered extreme sports.

extreme sports are also characterized as "alternative sports". several

of the sports that fall into this category, also known as ' criminal sports

because they were banned in many places too dangerous. also, many of

athletes have taken an alternative fashion and saw themselves as outside

the usual sports world.

many extreme sports are actually new versions of old sports, often made

perhaps through technological changes or improvements in equipment. for example,

bmx racing and mountain biking. ice skating is

form of skating.

for the most part, extreme sports originated as recreational activities for

individuals, but often in a group context. how they became competitive,

extreme sports have been at least partially absorbed by the mainstream, though

snowboarding is still the only extreme sport that has become an olympic event.

one of the most spectacular extreme sports is bmx. there are two main

forms, bmx racing, which takes place on a dirt track from 300 to 400

metres with series of jumps and freestyle bmx involving stunts and

machinations. sport has come a long way since a group of children first began to organize

racing in palms park, santa monica, california, in 1969. fans of motocross,

but too young to ride motorcycles, they called their sport " pedal cross." they

couldn't have known they were starting. races quickly became more and

the sport became known as bmx, which means 'motocross bike'. initial

the american national championship was held in 1974 and the first magazine is dedicated to

sport appeared in the same year. he went from strength to strength everywhere

the eighties and nineties, and today there are more than 50 national bmx organizations

around the world.

another popular extreme sport is roller skating.

skaters all over the world. inline skates are generally accepted to be very new and

modern but actually all roller skates are in line from the first known pair in 1716

until 1863. it was then that james plimpton invented a skate with wheels in

rectangular arrangement. in 1966, the original roller skates returned, but this was not the case

until 1980, that two hockey brothers, scott and brennan olson

minneapolis, realized that the commercials can be used for training and practice

when there was no ice. they started making their own skates by selling them

friends, and eventually set up their own company, rollerblade, to sell them.

they were so successful that inline skates are often known simply as

'roller skates.’

as a competitive sport, roller skating is actually a multiple sport. there are built-in

variants of traditional roller skates: speed skating, artistic (fig.)

ice skating and roller hockey. however, the most famous and most popular

competitive sports are aggressive roller skating, also known as "agro". gymnasts

would show your skills for people watching to copy. there are two events,

street and vert (short for vertical). at street competitions skaters perform tricks

while jumping over boxes, ramps and rails, while in vert they make a 60-second

routine tricks and tricks in the halfpipe like the one used in skateboarding and

snowboard.

it seems some extreme sports will continue to grow in popularity and bring

more and more people. so what are you waiting for? go to extremes!
