Extreme sports are popular in European and American countries, and the most representative among them on land, sea, and air are undoubtedly water skiing, mountain biking, and powered paragliding. But you probably didn’t know that these three extreme sports have long taken root in China. As early as the 1980s, powered paragliding and mountain biking were introduced to China, and water skiing even became an official competition event!
Even so, have you ever witnessed the thrill of these three extreme sports racing at full speed together? Have you experienced up close the spectacle of top athletes gathering for a “duel of champions”? The inaugural “Three-in-One South Lake · Summit Showdown” National University Lakeside Challenge at South Lake in Yueyang, China, is about to deliver an unforgettable show. Three extreme sports racing the same course, top athletes competing head-to-head, plus university students recruited from five provinces—Sichuan, Hunan, Hubei, Jiangxi, and Chongqing—representing their respective provinces and schools as they battle opponents and fight for glory.
