Parkour
By Savu Denis Timotei

This sport first appeared in the United States when they were trying to find a method to move quickly in a city if you have an emergency.
Parkour is a sport that allows you to overcome an obstacle quickly. For example, you are running and you jump a table, a wall or climb up a tree.
To do it you need good physical training and very simple equipment: running shoes, good sport clothes, and, if you want, a wrist.
Before practicing parkour you must warm up your muscles. And some advice: don’t try to do things you can’t do.

Surf

By Carla Bustamante & Carla Gimeno

Surfing is a sport that was created in the 1700’s. It consists of riding down a breaking wave. Surfing has evolved over the years and surfers have discovered a lot of cities with better waves where they can surf. For example: Hawaii, California, Oahu… The most important surfers in the world are Kelly Slater, Aritz Aramburu, Gj Hoodgod...Kelly Slater is an American surfer who has won a lot of championships (Mundaka, Hossegor, Banzai Pipeline....) He is the best and the richest surfer! The youngest surfer in the championship is a Basque called Aritz Aramburu. When he was 3 years old he went to a surf school in Zarautz with famous retired surfers.There are a lot of championships in the world, but the most important is the ASP. Surf is dangerous for two reasons. The first one is to surf in a city whose beaches have (some) sharks, because they can bite you when you are on the board, thinking you are a fish. Moreover, if a wave breaks when you are surfing and you fall of into the sea, you can hit your head on a stone and die because of that.
