| The popularity of outdoor adventure sports is massive and continues growing at a fast clip. As an outdoor adventure sport enthusiast myself, I believe this popularity stems from being in the beauty of nature, combined with heightened experiences — flying through jungle canopies, tapping into the power of waves or white water rivers, soaring in the air like an eagle or free-falling while suspended a mile above the earth. In addition to the immediate “WOW!” factor, these experiences create a very positive and profound effect — adrenalin flowing, senses heightened. Emotional baggage vanishes and you enter a Zen state of being fully in the moment — something that stays with you and gives you a new perspective.
Intrigued? Here is a look at certain outdoor adventure sports that are fully accessible, even with very limited arm movement. You can try them without purchasing any additional gear. And you don’t have to be a superjock to do them. If they grab you, you can learn how to do them on your own. |
