What makes extreme sports so popular? “People love the thrill,” says Murray Nussbaum, who sells sports equipment. “City people want to be outdoors on the weekend and do something challenging. The new equipment is so much better now that people can take more risks with much less chance of getting hurt.” An athlete adds, “Sure there’s a risk, but that’s part of the appeal. Once you go mountain biking or snowboarding, it’s impossible to go back to bike riding or skiing. It’s just too boring.”
是什么让极限运动如此受欢迎？“人们喜欢这种刺激，”销售体育器材的默里·努斯鲍姆说。“城市人想在周末到户外去做一些有挑战性的事情。现在的新设备好多了，人们可以冒更大的风险，受伤的机会也少多了。” 一名运动员补充道:“当然有风险，但那是吸引力的一部分。一旦你从事了山地自行车或单板滑雪运动，你不可能再回头参加传统自行车或双板滑雪运动了。那太无聊了。”
