Extreme Sports
In
this episode we find Dr Rob on his adrenalin packed pursuit
of all things extreme!! All in the name of science of course.well,
physics anyway.
Ever wondered why the skateboard sticks to
your feet when you do an "Ollie" or how big wave riders manage
to conquer those massive walls of water? Well hitch a ride
on the half pipe and hang on! Because Dr Rob is racing through
some of the world's most extreme sports.
He uncovers a new
type of skateboard invented by a 14 year old, checks out the
latest on the adrenalin crazed agenda - kitewinging - and doesn't
even dodge the dodgiest, danger defying one of them all - the
little known sport of SKELETON!
Don't miss all the action as
Dr Rob once again, makes the ordinary - extraordinary, "under
the SCOPE!"
