Electric boards come in handy if we don't have kite equipment, a motor boat or meter waves. With the help of electricity, even a calm water surface can be turned into an excellent training ground for increasing adrenaline. Awake Rävik is another board that 'plows the fallow'.

At the end of the winter season, the temperatures were already so high that you could really ski or surfed in bathing suits. Well, in the Russian ski resort of Rosa Khutor in Sochi, they did just that. Namely, the second BoogleWoogle swimsuit skiing festival was recently held there, where the participants put on swimwear instead of overalls.

It didn't take former US President Barack Obama long to get used to life in retirement. Now that he has been freed from the shackles of the security service, which, as a mother to a small child, for eight long years prohibited him from doing many things in the name of security, he is making up for all that he missed during his presidency. Among other things, learning to kite. He recently took a vacation on the island of Moskito, owned by the founder of the Virgin company Richard Branson, with whom he competed in a very special match.

Surf destinations: Surfing the waves in the land below the Alps https://citymagazine.si/en/surfing-on-the-waves-in-the-land-below-the-alps/ Tue, 14 Jul 2015 04:20:27 +0000 http://citymagazine.si/?post_type=article&p=173275

The beginning of summer, vacation, packing and going to the sea, mostly to the Croatian coast. This is the classic formula of a Slovenian holiday. But where can a surfer or someone who would like to learn to surf the waves go? Here, we should not mix windsurfers and real surfers who catch waves on the open sea. Few people know that there are much more of them in Slovenia than it seems at first. Even less that there is even a surf scene with clubs, courses and sports federations and competitions. The first and most successful Slovenian surfer is the Argentinian Slovenian Jože Žurga, who caught his first wave in the early 1960s. He is considered a legend of surfing in South America, but unfortunately the gentleman was not a pioneer on the local scene and on the nearby Adriatic coast. Thus, according to the Surf Federation of Slovenia, the boys who set up the first surf school and club in 1999 - Ujusansa - are considered the pioneers of organized surfing at home.

Airboard – an inflatable cushion for adrenaline-fueled descents on the snow https://citymagazine.si/en/airboard-inflatable-cushion-for-adrenaline-snow-descent/ Fri, 13 Feb 2015 05:20:25 +0000

Airboard is an inflatable cushion made of durable rubber material that offers something between classic sledding and bodyboarding, with the difference that instead of seawater, the latter "sprays" snow in your face. Similar to snowkiting, airboarding is a fairly new sport, but due to the lightness, comfort and affordability of the airboard, it sticks as well as snow on the road when the temperature is below freezing. It is suitable for children and adults.

Melbourne, Australia's Victoria Harbor may soon be richer for a floating surf park that allows you to ride waves up to 1.5 meters high. Architecture studio Damian Rogers is planning a 160-meter-long heated pool, where it will be possible to create artificial waves in a controlled manner.

The beginnings of "wakeboarding" date back to the second half of the 90s, and ever since then this adrenaline activity, which is a mixture of skiing and waterboarding, has been plagued by one feature - it needs a speedboat to pull it. But thanks to two enterprising Swedes, today we have a "self-sufficient" jet-powered Raddin wakeboard that will leave them on the shore.

Not only in name, Slovenians and Slovaks are similar in skiing habits. Slovenians experience skiing as a national sport, which is hard to say for Slovaks, but both of us much prefer going abroad to our home terrain, which does not mean that Slovakian ski centers are not worth a visit.
