With the passage of time ‘adventure sports’ aka ‘extreme sports’ have gained popularity. These sports include a variety of options ranging from aero sports such as paragliding, wind surfing, parasailing, skydiving, hang gliding, bungee jumping, kite surfing etc. to water sports like scuba diving, snorkelling, kayaking, Rafting, etc. to various other extreme sports like rock climbing, mountain biking and cave diving. Unlike the traditional sports, adventure sports are governed by a number of uncontrollable factors like wind, snow, terrain, water, mountains etc. depending on the specific sport. These factors cannot be kept constant as is the case with traditional sports. Some of these factors include snow for snowboarders, height and shape for surfers, rock quality for hill climbers. One major factor distinguishing the traditional sports and adventure sports is the high level of risk involved in adventure sports which adds to the thrill one experiences in these kind of sports.
