What to buy an extreme sports fan this Christmas

An extreme sports experience

If extreme sports is indeed their thing, but they can’t actually make up their minds about which sport they prefer, then rather than you having to make the difficult decision about what to get them (which would almost certainly be wrong, as life tends to be like that) why not let them simply embark on an extreme sports experience of their choosing, by purchasing an extreme sports experience instead? The great thing about these experiences is that there is just so much to choose from, so any extreme sports lovers would be absolutely in their element. Just to give an example of which kinds of activities and experiences are actually on offer, people can choose from things such as: 4X4 off road driving, go karting, paintballing, mountain biking, jet skiing, zorbing, bungee jumping, track racing, flying lessons, quad biking, mountain climbing, rock climbing, and much more. Check out the top 10 experience right here.

Bloukrans Bungy jump

For the ultimate adrenaline fuelled extreme sports gift, this fantastic bungee jump experience from the Bloukrans Bridge, situated in the Tsitsikamma area of the Garden Route, simply cannot be ignored.

The Bloukrans Bungy jump experience is from a leg-shaking 216 metres (709 feet) above the beautiful Bloukrans River. It is the world's highest commercial bungee bridge, as well as the highest commercial natural bungee jump in the world, and is a once-in-a-lifetime experience that simply must be experienced to be believed.

If you don’t have a head for heights, or rather, if the recipient of your gift doesn’t have a head for heights, then you may want to give this a miss. However, if you know they love bungee jumping, adrenalin rushes, and exhilarating experiences that make you feel more alive than ever, a Bloukrans Bungy jump experience will be the perfect gift this Christmas time.

GoPro Hero4

The GoPro Hero4 is the latest video camera from the GoPro family. It’s a video camera that will enable you to record what you’re up to when in action. This can cover so many extreme sports from snowboarding to canoeing. And no you don’t have to hold the camera whilst going white knuckle downhill! You simply attach it to your helmet.

The quality of the footage the camera produces is astonishing and gives you something to watch once your back home from an adrenaline-filled day out.

TAKTIK® Extreme iPhone protection

If the person you’re buying for has an iPhone why not consider getting them some protection for it, after all they don’t come cheap. The TAKTIK® Extreme for 5s by LunaTik offers the ultimate protection by being water proof and impact resistant. Perfect if they love sports that are turbulent or involve water.

Swiss Army Knife

Not just a knife, a Swiss Army Knife! These things come in very handy in all kinds of situations and are applicable to many extreme sports. They come in handy for adjusting your equipment, fixing flat tyres and let’s not forget opening your bottle of beer!

So there we have my advice on gifts for this Christmas. Have a great Christmas and I hope your loved ones enjoy their presents!
