The Rise of the Paincation

On day five of an eight-day, 500-mile mountain bike race in Africa, Piers Constable found himself sprawled in the dirt for the second time. First he'd crashed on his left side, then on his right, until he was, in his own words, "muddied and bloodied," staring at a bike that was very much broken. He remembered a feed station a couple miles away and realized he had two choices: quit or run. He picked up the bike and ran.

Streetdog BMX Review - Skill, Stubbornness, and a Lot of Concrete

Streetdog BMX isn't trying to revive the glory days of BMX games, nor is it chasing mass appeal. It's a deliberately fiddly, skill-focused take on BMX riding, aimed squarely at players who enjoy mastery more than spectacle. And like real-life riding, that first crash is the key moment - because you're either going to toss the fucking thing in the trash, or grind like a madman and try again.

Skier Releases Large Cornice Fall While His Friend Films

The man behind the camera filming his friend triggering a massive cornice fall may have been chuckling but cornice safety is no laughing matter. Releasing an overhanging mass of snow formed by wind deposits (triggering a cornice fall) can lead to snow immersion suffocation (SIS) when the skier lands and trigger avalanches or simply entrain large amounts of loose snow along with the cornice debris which is also a dangerous scenario.
