Yes, this is a sport. Arguably one of the more dangerous motorsports of them all. One navigator, one driver, and one dinghy is what it takes to join the chaos, but don’t be fooled by the smooth turns and perfect navigation…one wrong move and you’ll be tumbling up the shoreline. The sport is rooted in a rich history of dinghy racing in Australia, led by those brave enough to hang out over the hull and rip a turn at 20km/h. Take a look at what just might be the next big thing in motorsports.

It’s not snowmobiling, and it’s definitely not motocross. It’s called snow biking, and it might be one of the coolest up-and-coming sports out there. The concept is fairly simple: take a regular motocross bike, slap on a snow mobile track and a front ski instead of wheels, and voilá…you’ve got a snow bike. To check out this new sport, pro freestyle motocross rider Ronnie Renner set out to test out the bike himself in some fresh Idaho powder. Needless to say, we think they’re definitely onto the next big thing. Check out some top moments from their session!
When the volcano on Miyake-jima erupted in the year 2000, the entire population of the island was evacuated and forced to live off-island for four-and-a-half years until 2005.Canadian downhill racer Stevie Smith was fortunate enough to visit the island and was granted permission to explore the volcano by bike, which was the first successful filming of the peak approved by Miyake Village since the eruption in 2000.
With the permission of Miyake Island, Stevie hiked up the to the peak with a bare bones film crew, and set out to charge down the spine of the active volcano. The lava rock was gnarly, the riding fast, and the scenery utterly breathtaking, so sit back and enjoy Stevie’s descent along the active volcano.

Icebergs in Cape Cod?! That’s right. This unusual weather phenomenon was a spectacle for most, but for pro wakeskater Brian Grubb, it was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to shred.

Check out some of the best action from his session!
