My X-Treme Paragliding Terror Longbow
My XPTL Imagine a sport so extreme and intense that your children’s children are going to have flashbacks of when you attempted it. I now introduce the “X-Treme Paragliding Terror Longbow” (XPTL). A sport only for those who have the testicular fortitude to compete in. The sport is divided into three different portions. Paragliding, snowboarding, and Longbow that are all judged on three separate areas. The first one would be skill, the second is style, and the third and final is on points. I am here to define the sport’s three sections and sum it up into the sport as its own. Here in the first section of XPTL is the paragliding portion. Most people know what paragliding is I would assume, but for those who haven’t got the slightest idea I
will enlighten you. Paragliding is two words put together, parachute, and gliding. This is where a person would jump out of a moving plane hundreds of miles in the air, pull the chord on their parachute and glide to the ground. Now in XPTL, the contestant will skydive out of the plane hurtling toward a mountain checkpoint while performing any stunts, tricks, etc. Now here is the catch, the contestant has a C4 bomb that is strapped to his chest. That is where the terror comes into play. The contestant must know exactly when to open his parachute, or boom. Goodbye to the contestant that is competing. If they survive our little terror set, and finally end safely on the Mountain, we head to our next portion. Now here in the second portion of XPTL we get to snowboard down a mountain. Snowboarding is a favorite past time of plenty of people. Enjoying a fine run down a fresh powder in the Icey wind. Forgetting all of your worries, but unfortunately the contestant cannot do that. Now as the now mentally scarred contestant heads down the snow covered mountain, he/she must overcome multiple obstacles. Using their “skill” they must hop over holes in the ground, avoid trees, dodge flaming arrows, and of course not fall over the mountain. Now at about the halfway mark the contestant will reach a checkpoint where they will receive the final item they need to finish the task. Finally, the contestant will acquire a longbow with a pack of arrows. Anyone who has ever shot a bow knows it’s a challenge. Aiming, drawing back the bow so it will have enough force to hit the target. Well now imagine that, but at the same time snowboarding. Here in the final stretch of XPTL, the contestant will shoot at various targets placed down the mountain. Doing so will acquire points for whom ever is competing. Keep in mind that moving, keeping balance, and shooting a bow is no walk in the park. Finally, at the foot of the mountain, the event is all over. XPTL will be a revolutionary new sport. Filled with excitement, terror, suspense, and the most extreme qualities you could possibly imagine. I find that inventing a sport such as this deserves recognition. In due time I will get that, and in due time this sport will be reality. Though for now, XPTL will remain one of my many hopes and desires.
