Or is it freaking rad?

You decide.

Lame. And I demand a poll!

It's like Parkour's lame cousin.

It is an extreme sport for children aged 4 and under.

I'd do it1 Its not going to be in the olympics anytime soon but hey, whatever.

Yeah pretty shit, I used to do this crap when I was younger and did bring a thrill but I never came up with some shit name like Powersliding and certainly not a sport.

Plenty of kids have been doing similar things for years.

I'd do it

Are you saying you haven't already?

Don't hate braaah, these powersliders be hittin up the joints and doing some crazy shit. You haters are just jealous.

i think it's awesome and look forward to the comps. also, sponsorships from jeans companies.

It looks like fun, but isn't a sport.

but isn't a sport.

Ah, I see, so you're a fascist.

This guy knows what's up:

add a scoring system and it could be in the olympics

You haters are just jealous.
Yes. This is definitely the case. I am jealous of people sliding down banisters, but I have a reason for it. You see, I have a medical condition called "Narrow Ass" which means that my butt cannot stay on a bar for more than two or three seconds before it falls off and I go spilling across the floor.

Looks moderately fun, but also looks like the type of thing that gets more amusing the more drunk you get.

Maybe if you made a huge track and had races. It could be like bobsledding, but on your ass.

But it wouldn't be like "omg, look at me go down one flight of stairs on a railing, I'm like Dennis the Menace".

And then you wake up with a grazed shoulder and a bruised hip that makes it sore to sit down. The main reason why I am currently sitting on my side.

I dub this sport... buttsledding.

Lame. Now, drownball, that's an extreme sport.

you may be interested in a new product i'm developing for aspiring powersliders - the beginners' badonkadonk. extra wide and and specially shaped to help people just starting out learn the form and balance needed to achieve sliding success.

Even more extreme shit, I could watch this intense stuff all day: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RLKvTXjXI3g&feature=related

Hey Hydesland, you wouldn't go and do a Mouldy Smurf and post it on here for us to see.

i'm thinking more like scored routines, a la gymnastics or skateboarding, with both specially built 'park' and 'street' style events.

Am I the only one who thought about anal sex?

I like the bobsled type idea better...

Also, this is more of a sport than powersliding is: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=njHE4S-HD3I at least these people do sports to achieve their level of "extreme".

Am I the only one who thought about anal sex?
I always think about anal sex.

I'd make fun of it....but the most popular sport in the US consists of driving in a circle for hours on end. *shrug*

Holy shit, this is a sport? Awesome! I always slide down the handrails if there is one on the stairs.

Lame attempts at parkour that don't work, so you invent a new name.

Also, powersliding is done using power. Specifically, a 150+hp/ton rear wheel drive car.

It's for people who can't skate

As they say, Cocaine is a Hell of a drug.

Lame. Now, drownball, that's an extreme sport.

What is drownball?

Holy Nose Booger batman! What is with these kids and holding the camera so close to their face that we can see baby zits forming?

"Power sliding" may not be a crime, but loitering is.

Awesomely rad.

do i have to pick just one? all "extreme sports" are lame, unless you're into participating in them. i'm not, but to each their own. as long as the participatents are voluntarily enthusiests themselves.

if they kill themselves they improve the breed and make more room for the rest of us.

Lame. A far better extreme sport is curling, played with landmines. Though I don't think Zombie Princess Diana approves.

Those guys are admirable in their ability to laugh at themselves.

However, this (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1OE6HgK9NjQ) and this (http://www.extremecroquet.org/) are far more extreme. As is ironing, of course.

Parkour's gay cousin. A slicked up hard rod sliding between your cheeks gives you a thrill.

I never though of it as a sport just something to do when stoned.

It's like Parkour's lame cousin.

I was thinking the same thing: Parkour for lazy people. :p

All of them? Or at least the fact that they're called "sports". Call them what they are. Intense physical activities for people who don't like stuff really organized.

Someone needs to buy those young chaps some skateboards.

Bah! Who needs skateboards?

You guys can have your parkour and drowball. Fred Syversen (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tkZ7Tyf7_YM&feature=related) will have ya'll beat any day.

The most successful fuck-up i've seen in a while :p

That's like freerunning's retarded sibling.

Do people know about the exciting sport of curling? :)

Fucking impressive.

Makes me wonder why gymnastics coaches aren't trying to get these guys into their programs. Probably too bourgeois? Apparently they've never heard of endorsement deals for the very best, and it seems these guys' fearlessness could easily make them revolutionaries in gymnastics.

My only gripe with most of these sports is the scoring -- but that's my gripe with gymnastics and figure skating, too. Diving's a bit more cut-and-dried, pardon the pun, but the subjectivity makes "sport" a very loose term. Much more so for "extreme" sports.

The second link? Pishers. We were playing "death croquet" back in the early 80s. Fun stuff, though! Loved the "mallet wedge".

The kids in that video looks like complete tools too.

Mmm retarded.

Looks like it would work as part of parkour... if you had an infinite supply of pants.

This is better

I quite like this (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7MV7-tMrbiM) version

I think it looks like fun. Lol, only some Californians would do this.

Maybe if you made a huge track and had races. It could be like bobsledding, but on your ass.


And if you ate a lot of beans previously, you could have the human hovercraft.

:p

Fart cushion vehicle...

We approve this video :hail:

It's kinda cool but I this doesn't qualify as a sport. ...it's just a faster way of going down stairs. Any asshole can do this - I used to get in trouble for doing this at my highschool all the time. ...elementary school aswell actually.
