Adventure Sports
Andalucia has some of the best venues in the world for a range of sports, which should satisfy the desire for modest thrills and adventure inherent in most of us. Within a relatively small area, the region has the sea, hills and mountains, undulating countryside, forests, wide open spaces, lakes and rivers, major cities and tiny hamlets, hundreds of wonderfully sunny days, just the right amount of rain, snow, beautiful flora and fauna, dozens of species of wild animals and birds - enough to be going on with.As for adventure sports, perhaps we should count ourselves fortunate that in southern Spain we don't have any skyscrapers to attract base-jumpers. There are, however, plenty of seriously high cliff faces, especially around the Sierra Nevada and Ronda, should you fancy your chances at this off-the-wall (literally) occupation. Basically, what you do is run as fast as you can and hurl yourself off the edge of a cliff, assume the straddle position, manoeuvre yourself as far away from the face as possible and open the 'chute, all within about six or seven seconds, and then float gently to the ground. That's the theory, anyway. The legality of base-jumping is questionable, particularly in urban areas, although that does seem to add a certain frisson for some. It won't surprise you to know that there is no official organisation for base-jumpers.Skydiving, for those with a bent for the mega-adrenalin rush, is similar to regular free fall parachuting, but much, much, much faster. Aficionados exit the plane and then invert themselves, head pointing straight down, legs together and arms clamped to their sides. The idea, quite simply, is to go as fast as possible...and they do, at times reaching speeds edging around 200mph. Someway prior to hitting the ground, preferably, you just pull out of the dive, assume the normal straddle shape, decelerate and release the parachute. A buzz, or what! Not unnaturally, it is advisable to have mastered free fall in the sit fly and star shape positions before attempting it head first.More information on this, and any other aerial sport, is available from the Federacion Andaluza de Deportes Aereos, at Arenal 9, Malaga (Tel: 952 21 69 48/60 13 61).Speed skiing is exactly what it says - going hell-for-leather straight down a near-vertical, ice-covered track on a pair of skis, described as 'nearly past fear at terminal velocity'. The skis are wider than normal, you carry body-hugging poles, aerodynamic helmets are mandatory, and so is a large helping of courage and a touching faith in your own ability on 240cm-long, 30lb fibreglass planks. In Andalucia, those heading for the Sierra Nevada have to do their fastest down the black runs. Incidentally, you stop by the simple expedient of sliding up a gentle gradient at the end of the run. Then head for the nearest bar.
