Extreme sports: Alpinism
Posted: Mon Nov 21, 2016 1:21 pmApart from the extreme sports from the unit 7, I know another of them, the alpinism. And I really know about it, not because I have tried it, but because a friend of mine did. And I said did because she dead on the mountain, two months ago... and we still can’t believe it...
Last winter I tried ski mountaineering because my boyfriend loves it. This sport is about climbing mountains with the skis on your back and to descend the mountain you put on the skis and set off down the slope. You need two especial skills: strength and balance.
In my opinion, this sport it is very dangerous because of the weather. It can change in a few seconds. The most important things are to check the meteorology the day before, wake up very early, for example at 6 a.m., be safe having the correct equipment as a shovel, thermal blanket, water, food... and you must say to your family, friend... in with mountain will you be climbing.
In the mountain you should know that you can die, the most common accident is by an avalanche.
