What is extreme sports? What are the extreme sports?

Extreme sports are some difficult and challenging combined sports. For example, skateboarding, extreme cycling, rock climbing, snowboarding, air surfing, street downhill, parkour, double skateboarding, extreme cross-country, extreme water skiing and extreme roller skating are all extreme sports.

It evolved from a number of shaping movements and various movements in games, life and work, and it is a difficult ornamental movement with teenagers as the main participants. In the process of integration with nature, with the help of modern high-tech means, human beings maximize their physical and mental potential and challenge themselves by entertainment.

It not only pursues the spirit of "higher, faster and stronger" that competitive sports surpass their own physiological limits, but also emphasizes the spirit of participation, entertainment and courage, and pursues the pleasure and sense of accomplishment gained when crossing psychological barriers.

At the same time, it also embodies the beautiful desire of human beings to return to nature and protect the environment, so it is praised as the "future movement" by all countries in the world.

CX—— Extreme Sports in China

The full name of CX is "China Extreme Games", which was first held by China Extreme Sports Association in 1999. CX is the authoritative event of extreme sports in China, and it is also a carnival for extreme sports professionals and fans.

Extreme sports itself can be divided into broad sense and narrow sense.

Some challenging non-Olympic and non-World Games events can be broadly called extreme sports, such as bungee jumping, rock climbing and cliff diving.

However, the narrow sense of extreme sports only refers to the molding projects included in various large-scale extreme sports games, such as extreme motorcycles and extreme roller skating. Because these extreme sports in the games have been systematically developed for a long time, they have already reached a scale, have strict organization, perfect rules and reasonable competitions, and many events have been gradually absorbed by large-scale comprehensive games. For example, BMX racing has become an Olympic event, and snowboarding U-pool is also a formal Winter Olympics event.

Then the origins of these extreme events are simply two kinds. One is evolved from a shaping sport. For example, extreme motorcycles are differentiated from cross-country motorcycles, and extreme skiing is evolved from ordinary skiing.

Others evolved from games, life and work, such as skateboarding and rock climbing.

There are many extreme competitions in the world, but the most famous one is the EXPN extreme competition held once a year in summer and winter. Every year, there are some subtle changes in the participating projects. Some emerging projects with perfect rules are constantly absorbed, while some projects that have been widely developed and have a strong mass base are invited, such as roller skating, which is no longer EXPN.

The results of some sociologists' investigation on extreme sports show that in the face of increasingly cruel competition at the turn of the century and the knowledge economy era of information explosion, the pace of life of modern people is getting faster and faster, the work pressure is getting bigger and bigger, and the living space is getting smaller and smaller. ......

The realistic environment makes modern people overwhelmed, and the increasing stimulation makes people's sensory limits constantly improve. Primitive sense is not strong, and it can't adapt to the pursuit of human beings.

From ballroom dancing in the 1970s and disco in the 1980s to bowling and sauna in the 1990s, people's growing sensory needs have been unable to meet.

On the one hand, people need to seek stimulation, vent pressure and release energy. On the other hand, it is not surprising that people are accustomed to general stimulation and enjoyment.

At this time, people began to pursue more intense stimulation, so as to get the feeling and awakening they needed. The rise of extreme sports just meets this demand of human beings.

Human beings have created civilization in the embrace of nature, but civilization is keeping human beings away from nature. Perhaps human beings have lived in the civilized world far away from nature for too long, and gradually fell into physical and mental laziness with the convenience brought by urban civilization, and began to yearn for returning to nature.

Urban trendy people who can't hold back their mood are eager to get out of the blockade of urban civilization, talk to nature, restore the true colors of human beings as a member of nature, and show the most essential abilities of human beings.

The rise of extreme sports just meets this demand of human beings. In addition, compared with traditional sports (including the Olympic Games), extreme sports are more self-challenging, stimulating, high-tech and commercial than physical and mental limits.

When the essence of sports is more and more concealed by the light of money; Many Olympic events are gradually plagued by many problems, such as fraud, black whistle, doping, bribery scandals and so on;

The essence of physical and mental pleasure, promoting human nature and returning to nature in sports is gradually diluted; Sportsmanship has encountered unprecedented doubts and trust crisis.

However, among the non-mainstream sports out of the sight of the general public, there is a clear stream of returning to nature, blending into nature, challenging oneself and reaching the ideological realm of "harmony between man and nature"-extreme sports, which has quietly become the most popular and lasting fashion movement for urban youth in Europe, America and developing countries, and participating in extreme sports has become the dream of urban youth.

With the rise of extreme sports, people gradually leave the traditional stadiums, go to the wilderness, indulge in mountains and rivers, and look for the essential meaning of human existence from nature.

Alone outdoors, extreme sports in the form of adventure have become a space for people to surpass themselves and challenge their limits: jet skiing and surfing, allowing you to fully experience the chic of fighting waves in the blue sky and clear water; White buffalo, white water rafting and white water kayaking let you experience thousands of miles of rushing and stormy waves. Bungee jumping and rock climbing make you feel the pleasure of "jumping to gravity and then soaring down";

The mountain is naturally a deep, beautiful and dangerous training ground. We abandon the ease and laziness brought by modern civilization, have the ability to get along with nature, and fully realize the pleasure of returning to human nature and original intention and testing human wisdom and strength.
