Adrenaline junkies will appreciate Ridewire, a new sport at Daytona Beach where you suspend yourself from cables while performing tricks on a board. In addition to being pretty fun, the ridewire system helps extreme athletes train for surfing, snowboarding, kiteboarding and wakeboarding.
Implications - With the Ridewire system, you can get your extreme sport fix in your own backyard. The set up sort of looks like a heavy duty swing set with a wakeboard taking the place of the traditional seat. Now you don't need to mission it down to the beach or skate park because all the fun is hanging at home. Anyone can easily use it, but supervision would probably be required for younger riders.
