Seeing skateboarders jump earlier, I thought that they tied the skateboards to their feet with an invincible strap. I later discovered that there is no string involved. It is just the work of nature coupled with lots of practice.

In physics, for every action there must be an equal but opposite reaction. This is what makes the skateboard lift off the ground without a ramp. It doesn’t come easy and lots of continuous repeated practice is required. Before you start skateboarding, you should have protective gear. You must wear a knee pad, helmet, elbow pads, gloves and wrist pads for your own safety.

The Technical Aspect

The process starts with the skateboarder placing the board in such a way that it lies flat on the ground. The back foot of the skateboarder is supposed to be put at the tail end of the board. Three quarters before the nose, the skateboarder places his front foot.

When the skateboarder presses the board down with his back foot, the nose of the board will rise. The reason behind this is that the board pivots itself around the wheels at the back creating a near see-saw effect. Subsequently the skateboarder will slide his front foot in the direction of the nose of the board and at the same time he ensures that he jumps upwards. This procedure will make the board level out.  Read more... (525 words, estimated 2:06 mins reading time)

Scuba diving opens up an adventure that’s unimaginable for those with land legs. The wonders that lie beneath the water’s surface are amazing. From the oceans and lakes to hidden caves and more, those who scuba see things that can only be imagined from the land.

Those starting out with scuba are not only advised to take classes, they’re generally required for rental of tanks, purchase of air and so on. Diving isn’t something that’s picked up in 20 minutes either. In fact, even experienced divers continue to take lessons or even prefer to teach them to help themselves stay on top of the game. Remember the world underwater does not belong to humans, so a solid understanding of how to survive is vital.

With proper use of diving equipment such as facemasks and air tanks, humans can descend into the world where sharks and whales rule; a place of shipwrecks, corral beds, colorful fish and more. But this world is inhospitable and requires a keen understanding for safety.

Those starting off will find the road to underwater depths takes some time to master. Recreational scuba divers generally stick to depths of 130 feet or less. Training for this is not as intensive as deep water diving since these dives don’t generally require decompression stops. When required these stops help the body pressurize to the new environmental conditions. Gravity has a new feel on the body under water than it does on land. Just like riding in an airplane, an adjustment period is required.  Read more... (585 words, estimated 2:20 mins reading time)
