Pedal go karts are cool! Built to look like the real thing, your little one can enjoy zooming around just like the big boys. With real high-backed racer-like seats and large, anti-slip pedals, you can buy karts that are chain driven with safe hand brakes. Children as young as 3 can easily operate the smaller-sized go karts, and there are sizes to fit children up to age 16 as well as some for people of all ages. Therefore, if you yourself are a go kart racing buff, you can start your children out young and allow them to grow up in the sport. These kiddie-sized go karts are loaded with features to give children more control as they rule the neighborhood sidewalks.
Kids started building and driving go-karts long before there were engines to put in them. Built of scrap lumber and discarded wheels, these simple karts were used to spend endless pleasurable hours zooming down the biggest hills the owners could find. Of course, safety wasn't as big of an issue then. If the kid fell off, he knew better than to go crying to his mama. Fortunately, kid go-karts have come a long way since that time. They now run on either gasoline engines or batteries, and everything has been done to make them safe for kids to ride in. Since they are so low-slung, the chance of one tipping over is relatively small, especially if the drivers stick to smooth terrain.

When you build your own go-kart, one of the most important parts of the vehicle is the seat.

Face it, if the seat isn't comfortable, no one is going to want to spend a great deal of time sitting in it. To make sure that the go-kart you're building gets all the use it deserves, make sure to buy a seat that is going to serve the rider well.

Snowboarding by itself is a fun and safe sport which is basically a cross between skiing and skateboarding. Using a single large snowboard, enthusiasts rush down slopes through the snow. The feel and balance is quite different from regular skiing since navigation through the snow is achieved on only a single board, and unlike skateboarding, snowboarders let gravity do all the work of propulsion for them as they slide down the slopes.

Chris Sharma has been unstoppable lately. After spending a lot of time in Spain climbing with some of climbing's greats like Dani Andrada and Patxi, Sharma has made some world class sends.
Chris has done the first ascent of Jumbo Love which he graded at 5.15b at Clark Mountain. This route is like 200 feet long and Chris took massive whippers from 60-100 feet over and over. He said he had to skip a lot of the clips because you couldn't even let go to chalk hardly clip.
Not long after sending his long time project Sharma decide to take a long weekend of climbing at Maple Canyon, Utah. Maple is an awesome gem in Utah's huge climbing scene that is made up of all these odd shaped cobbles. The climbing is can be very thuggy and quite hard to onsight, but I guess not for Chris Sharma.
Sharma who had not been to Maple Canyon for at least 10 years onighted two 5.14 routes and just dominated. He onsighted the 5.14a/b T-Rex in the massive and magnificent Pipe Dream cave. On his second day Chris onsighted Whole Shot 5.13d/14a, Toxic Turkey 5.13c as well as some additional climbs located in the Pipe Dream cave. On his last day at Maple Sharma returned to the Pipe Dream cave to try Divine Fury. After he spent 24 minutes on the route and skipping the crucial (for most that is) kneebars Sharma onsighted 'Divine Fury' 5.14b, to say the least not a bad weekend at Maple even for Chris Sharma.
Chris has definitely been on a sending rampage lately and I even heard that he is going to give a shot at El Cap. You heard my right Chris Sharma trad climbing, I know we don't hear about that too much. I am excited to see what happens with that.

Have you ever suffered a rock climbing injury? If you are like most rock climbers the answer is a resounding yes. You see rock climbing can be very hard on your body especially if are not doing the things you should be. Before we get into all of that let's talk about some common rock climbing injuries.
-Climber's Elbow
-Tendonitis
-Strained or pulled finger pulley's (most common pulley injury is the A2 pulley)
-Injured Hamstrings
-Shoulder injuries
Now all five of these rock climbing injuries can put you out of commission for weeks or even months, not too mention I have seen rock climbers who had to literally have surgery to heal from these injuries. Now if you are like me and you go through withdrawals from not being able to climb, you don't want to get injured. Especially when a majority of time you can prevent the injuries in the first place.
Let me explain. Most climbers do a lot of things that don't protect them from injury. Now I do not have time in this article to go through that entire list but I will point you in the right direction for more information if you would like. In this article I am just going to talk about the #1 cause of rock climbing injury.
So what is the #1 cause?
Above and beyond everything else this one thing is by far the major cause for rock climbing injury. A drum roll please....a simple as it may seem the #1 cause for climbing injuries is not warming up and cooling down properly. Now before you completely dismiss this and stop reading now let me explain. This is really important, trust me I know after being injured and out of climbing for nearly 6 months a few years back.
Our bodies are capable of doing many great things, but when we look at climbing we see our bodies having to do very brute, powerful, and unorthodox things. We are heel hooking, mantling top outs, dynoing for holds, snatching up tiny crimps and monos, etc. All of these things can be very hard on the body especially if your body is not warm.
Did you know your body can perform better by 20% or warm when it is properly warmed up? You probably didn't but it is true when we take the time to properly prepare our body it is ready for the task at hand and will perform even better.
Not too mention by warming up and cooling down your body your decrease your chance of injury dramatically.
So how should you warm up?
I use a several steps and recommend you do the same. Start by doing some jumping jacks, jogging, running in place, or any form of cardio to get your heart rate up and your blood moving. You only need to do about 5 minutes of this.
After the blood is moving I recommend you do some light stretching. Start with some shoulder circles, neck rolls, and forearm stretches. Be sure to breathe deeply during your stretching and hold each stretch for at least 30 seconds. Stretch out all the muscles in your upper body including your hands and finger joints.
Don't forget to stretch out your calves, hamstrings, and quads. A lot of climbers don't even bother with this and that is why when they need to do a powerful heel hook their hamstring hurts for days on end.
After your stretching it is important to do some moderate routes for your ability before you try anything really hard. This will help you loosen up and prepare your body for the demands you will place on it.
After you do a couple routes do some additional light stretching and now you and your body should be ready to go.
After climbing hard all day be sure to do at least one easy route and stretch everything out once again. If you are able to do some light jogging, hiking, or even some jumping jacks after your climbing session. This will cool the body down and disperse the lactic acid in your forearms to help recovery.
I know this might seem hard for some but this little bit of extra work will keep you climbing injury free and keep your body in better health. Not too mention you will be able to climb harder and longer.
So the choice is yours if you want to improve your climbing while protecting yourself from injury follow my advice. If not don't come crying to me when you cannot climb.

Active people, those who work outdoors, and even people who just walk to and from the car all have to slow down and take their time.

I still looked into the timeshare vacation membership and here's why.

The airfare is the most expensive part but there are wonderful fares right now that bring the costs w--a--y-- down. An example: AA Switzerland Air Sale to Zurich from $379! (ends 12/4)
