Welcome to Ricky's Adventure Sports Page

Rock-climbing, river-crossing, trekking, para-sailing, hang-gliding... these are some of the adventure activities that I am terribly interested in. I have to admit though that I am yet to try my luck with hang-gliding (money being a commodity that I am considerably short of for the moment!!)

Rock-climbing is a very fascinating sport where you can defy the gravitational pull to reach out into the sky clinging to steep rock faces by your short fingernails!!! If you are as much interested in photography as I am then you will definitely like to go along with the troop and have your heart's fill in the awe inspiring beauty of the breath-taking landscapes. Take a look at some of these interesting links to rock-climbing sites:

River-crossing is an art in its own respect. You maneouvre around nature's fury to wade (read get violently swept) across turbulent streams. It really is a shorts-wetting experience! Ha, ha...
Para-sailing? Yes, a bit of both worlds. While parachuting you normally expect to fall from a high altitude to the earth's surface with the chute opening somewhere in the middle of your journey but in this case you use the chute to get up in the first place! Strap yourself to the para-sail and get pulled along by a high powered speed boat or a sturdy jeep to the envy of all those watching from the beach doing nothing but oogling the sun (of all things!). Get a life, man.
