If you fancy racing down an active volcano at speeds of up to 50 miles per hour then this is the sport for you! The foothills of Nicaragua’s Cerro Negro Mountain attracts thousands of travellers and their boards, dressed in protective jump suits, knee pads and helmets. Volcano boarding has attracted over 10,000 participants since its creation in 2005.

Cliff Diving

Cliff diving is one of the riskiest forms of diving so standards have been fixed to protect the participants. Originating in the Hawaiian Island of Lana in 1770, the King demanded that his men leap off a cliff to demonstrate their courage and loyalty. Today divers will brave the rocks at a great height to take the plunge into the deep water below. Reaching speeds of up to 100 km per hour in a matter of seconds, this sport offers great thrills to all who love it.

Slacklining

If you have great balance and a stomach for heights then this could be the extreme sport for you. Slacklining uses a nylon webbing that is stretched between two points but unlike tightrope walking, the line is not rigid but stretches and bounces like a rubber band! As the webbing is flat and not round like rope it prevents your foot from rolling but because of the flexible nature of the line, it allows the slackliner to perform tricks and stunts offering amazing displays.
