Extreme Sports Styles With Osiis Shoes

Being entirely 'cool sports', Skateboarding, Skating, and BMX have really created a niche in the world of sporting, and clothing as well. These sports are highly respected, and coveted for their level of danger, and the fascination they inspire in bystanders. The people involved in actually taking part in the event(s) dress accordingly, literally to match the thrill and the extremes to which they reach. Taking traditional jeans to 'baggies', taking accessories to 'bling', footwear to 'kicks', and jackets to 'hoodies'; these extreme sport fanatics have quite created a clothing line for themselves.



A few of the leaders in the production of such apparel, Etnies Footwear, Osiris Shoes, and DC Accessories and DC Shoes are discussed in this article.

Etnies Footwear originally started in France in 1986, and only actually started marketing in America in 1989 and beyond. Though for the most part a maker of footwear intended for skateboarding, in more recent years they have also produced shoes and clothing for snowboarders, BMX, motocross riders, and surfers as well. They have now also got in to sponsoring numerous professional action sports athletes such as skateboarding, snowboarding, surfing, BMX and motocross.

Osiris Shoes felt that they saw an empty space for pro designed and certified footwear in the world of extreme sports, and so set up shop in 1996. One of the most famous to come from them was when Osiris called in pro skater Dave Mayhew to design his own skate shoe. The end result, The D3, initially began as a slow seller, but when Osiris began liquidating their surplus, the D3's status amplified drastically.

DC Shoes and DC Accessories is an American company which began in 1993 from California. They focus on footwear, but are in no way limited to it. They produce clothes that go with the styles of those caught up in extreme sports such as Rally Car Racing, Surfing, Snow Boarding, BMX, and Skateboarding etc. Quicksilver bought over the company in the year 2004 in a whopping Eighty Seven Million Dollar deal.

Exciting New Winter Olympic Sports

Bored with Olympics?

The Olympic Games have been around millenniums. From 8 BC to 5 AD the Olympics were only found in Athens, Greece. Then in 1894 a great intellectual named Pierre de Coubertin revived the tradition. This gentleman realized how “organized sport can create moral and social strength”. (The Olympic Idea.

Discourses and Essays. Editions Internationales Olympiques, Lausanne, 1970.) His combined love for physical education and ancient Greece caused him to reinvent the Olympic games. He is now known as the father of the modern Olympic movement.

People love the Winter Olympics. The figure skating, the tobagganing, and the skiing are all exciting and well-loved sports. But, let us admit, year in and year out they begin to be boring. How many ski jumps can we watch until they all look the same. Admit it...you are actually waiting for the wrecks because you are bored.

Let's look at some new winter sports that can be included in the Olympics in years to come. We will review nun (snow) chuckin, synchronized snow dancing, watermobiling and more. Read on to learn more about the newest and most exciting winter sports on earth.

Water-mobiling

We all know how hard it is to walk on water...Jesus did it, but I've never heard of another doing it. How then do these people ride their snowmobiles over the water? I wonder how deep that water really is. It looks deep! Be it miracle or speed, I would love to see this. Especially if they run out of gas...

 

Animal Javelin

The animal javelin is judged on the flexibility of the animal, correct nose down placement, and distance. Animals such as foxes required greater skill due to complexity. Foxes have great flexiblity and are very difficult to land in a nose-down position. Just look at what a great job this javelin thrower has done! The fish thrower landed a second in this event, while the cat thrower came in third. Points were taken off for no nose-down placement.

 

 

Winter Ballet

The Winter Ballet is a wonder to watch. The form and beauty astounds the spectators. Imagine how hard it must be to pirouette in the snow and ice. The precision and skill needed for this sport is a challenge to every type of athlete. Practicing for this sport is a rigorous event. Do not be like the group in the second photo. Time your practices to keep safe.

 

Wind Sledding

Wind Sledding can be accomplished fairly easily. All you need is a strong wind and a slick surface. Be it a kite or a cardboard box, you just catch the wind and off you go. You can use a sled or just your body. This is an inexpensive sport to start off in and a fun and great time is guaranteed for all.

 

Sumo Ski-Jumping

Sumo ski-jumping is simply fascinating! Like me, you must be wondering what G-force it takes to lift these warriors off the ground. Look at the form and grace displayed! Just remember to watch out below...

Synchronized Snow Dance

Synchronized swimming has been around for years, but how often can you watch a synchronized snow dance? This girl and her horse rehearse daily in the hopes that this event takes off. The group in the second picture are practicing the angel wing, a synchronized snow dance classic move.

 

Nun (snow) Chuckin
Watch the hilarious world of Nun (snow) Chuckin. Even nuns need a way to let loose. Watch the nuns as they come out of their cloisters and laugh and have fun. Choose your favorite team! This year's favorites are the Benedictines from South Wales, Australia. The Franciscans from New York City, New York are a close second. I cannot wait for the next thrilling match!

Yee-ha! The danger and adrenaline as youngsters rough it up at mini bull-riding rodeo

Bull riding has been called the most dangerous eight seconds of sport in the world. So there will be a few raised eyebrows that children are taking part in the notoriously difficult sport.
The youngsters, both girls and boys, were taking part in the Bull Wars rodeo event in Montpelier, Idaho, in the United States on miniature bucking bulls.


The sport involves the children being lifted on to the large steer and attempting to stay mounted for at least eight seconds while the frisky animal attempts to buck them off.

 

Another one bites the dust: A young rider falls from the bull

The skilled youngsters, dressed in leather chaps, helmets, cowboy boots and checked shirts, hold on with one hand gripping a rope.

The other hand is not allowed to touch the animal and they hold it high above their heads as the bull bucks, rears, kicks, spins and twists to try and throw them off. Riders are judged by the style of their performance and control of the bull with their spurs.

Throughout the ride, adult bullfighters are on hand to help the rider if they are kicked off, and distract the bull in order to protect the riders.

The sport is hugely popular in parts of the U.S. with many making their living from the sport.
