    Adrenaline Rush!

    What do you do for kicks?

    Me?

    Jumped outta cars, off boats (all of which were traveling at high speed), and off high bridges.

    Heights scare the crap out of me so I do things like go on roller coaster rides, zip line, bungee jump and plan on parachuting soon. I figure if it doesn't scare you where is the thrill?

    buddy and his wife just got this boat, big one, and we're hauling ass. this was over at don pedro. anyways, we are really moving, so i look over to my other buddy, wink at him, and then jump out into the water. i get back in the boat, and the chic is giving me the third degree... you coulda got hurt blah blah blah, so we take off again, hauling ass, so i wink at my buddy again and jump out again. I do this, no shit, probably 7 or 8 times. What a friggin rush! when you hit the water, you tumble severly, so you better be tucked, and facing the rear of the boat when you hit

    I have done this and it hurts pretty bad.

    My motorcycle is a pretty big rush. I jumped out of a plane but I thought that was pretty boring actually. Not too many things give me a rush anymore. Kickboxing is a partial rush (something about getting kicked in the head that just makes your heart start pounding).

    I took tae kwan do for a handful of years, so I understand what you mean. Feeling a guys nose crunch under my fist was cool, but shit like that was getting me in trouble.

    No "rush" for me on motorcycles, unless i'm really pushing it hard in the twisties.

    Sky diving on the 8th

    couple weeks after that renting some atvs to take out on pismo beach / or mexico if I can get my passport in time (buddies got a condo right on the beach)

    I still want to go rent some jet skis (The old school stand up kind) and take them out on the ocean. I have always taken them on the river / lake but the ocean looks way more bad ass


    Im also thinking about heading up to the bridge to no where and bungee jumping
    Im looking for more ideas though....

    Rental ATV's SUCK.... They are all throttled down, throttle limiter. I have a Polaris 90 2 stroke for the little one, Raptor 350, YFZ 450 and Raptor 700 modified. I have not found much of anything I cant climb with the 700. The Oregon dunes are good fun but I also do trail ridding. My first Raptor 700 was stolen 2 weeks after I had rolled it down a 500+ cliff. It wasn't straight down just VERY steep angle and I went with it for part of the ride. At one point the quad was about 15 feet in the air, I was on the ground rolling and looked up as it hit and bounced off my chest. Thank god for riding gear. My buddies yelled at me not to get up of fear I had internal damage. They saw the whole things. Only a couple cracked ribs, sprained wrist and a twisted up quad I had to retrieve at the bottom and find a way out of the forest. I still rode for almost an hour back to the truck but not in a straight line. LOL I pity the guys who stole it. Thank god for insurance.

    Stand up jet ski in the ocean is also good fun. I started riding stand-ups in 82. My first ski was a 1974 Kawasaki 440. I use to ride a 650 in the ocean and managed to completly break off the handle pole and crack the ski all the way around the body but kept it from sinking using duct tape. LOL The newer fat boy skis are still a blast out in the ocean, I have 2 of them because it gets a little boring riding by yourself on a stand-up all the time. SeaDoo 720 and 1500 GTX 4-TEC. You can get a LOT of air on those waves. Also, rental skis suck and are set to 1/2 throttle.

    Here are a couple pictured of me way back when on my stad-up. Yes the helmit is a good idea especially when riding only a few feet from the shore line and your ski is falling on top of you.

    Me jumping on the bike look at my speedo reading 290 is a big rush, being on one wheel at 150km is even better.

    Jet skiing is probably my favorite thing to do. Can't own one though because I'm too far from the beach atm. I also like atvs but I think dirtbikes are more fun.

    we threw a guy off a bridge in front of HQ. part of our tradition for promotion. funny as shit when this little 6 foot gator came out the reeds, slowly swimming towards the activity in the water. it was a black dude.... with big white eyes. in fact, those were the whitest, biggest eyes i think i've ever seen! funny as shit

    I grew up on the bayou and use to run into gators all the time. A few times I was in a very unfavorable situation with them.

    Rollercoaster still give me a rush. Not the whole ride tho. Just the initial chain ride up to the top. After that it's nothing special. The anticipation for me with most things is usually more of a rush than the actual event.

    Atv's and jet ski's are fun but they don't give me a rush.

    I used to get a rush fighting but don't do that anymore unless it's absolutely necessary.

    Repoing cars used to be a rush buy after a couple years that wore off.

    Competition is always a great rush. No matter what it is I love it.

    Drunken sex with a sexy stranger. Sounds weird but there's something about it that adds that extra edge. Not knowing anything about them other than what they look like and sometimes there name. The alcohol and the anonymity usually fuels a wild time. Then ofcourse the anticipation of whether it's gonna burn when you pee for the few days following lol.

    I skinny dip in the winter in every location I have lived in. Last winter I didn't was the first since I can remember that I didn't do it. Don't live close to an ocean anymore. cliff jumping, truck jumping, surfing on top of cars trying not to hold on with hands. I love touching off some rounds with a high caliber rifle at long range or a mean shotgun. Love the power. Going hand over hand under bridges. Love climbing radio towers and fire towers. Climbed one at 250' straight climb in rain, big tower still swaying and wind so intense with awesome view. I've mellowed out lately.
