The famous “Extreme Crimea”, which has been taking place since July 23 with the support of the government of the republic, has offered guests and residents of the peninsula a completely new format of recreation. 9 days without a break here you can watch and participate in water, street, beach, dance battles, combining them with beach holiday at the most clean beaches peninsula. By the way, from “ tent camp“This year the project was transformed into a large-scale sports town with its own infrastructure, camping and sports and entertainment areas for children and adults, expanding the territory by almost a third.

Without waiting for the SUP surfing Cup, vacationers master
extreme swims in the open sea on SUP.

However, the extreme began long before the festival. The chief architect of the festival says:

Design and approval took place over six months. Construction itself - within a month. They did a lot of work, including communications - light, water, etc. There were about 15 teams of carpenters alone working here. The weather caused more difficulties. The heat is 40 degrees. There was a hurricane, storms - with coastline During the festival, almost the entire beach was washed away.

Gym under open air and parkour - a professional level platform -
attracted risky guys from Lithuania, Poland, Romania to the coast of Tarkhankut,
Great Britain, Kazakhstan, Russia, Belarus and Ukraine.

Considering that some buildings were planned to be installed on the coastline, we had to move the construction further away.

Safe holiday

The most popular “folk” pastime is slacklining. The tapes are stretched at different heights.
How impressive the somersaults will look depends on them and their skill.
and other tricks that you decide to do.

Deputy Prime Minister of Crimea Dmitry Polonsky, who participated in the opening of the IV International Festival of Extreme Sports “EXTREME Crimea-2016”, noted:

This is the only site in Crimea today that has passed absolutely all necessary approvals. Here, as expected, the beach area was checked for explosive objects. Since the competition is on the water, the entire area has been surveyed. All requirements regarding water supply, sewerage, etc. have been met. In order for spoiled tourists to go to Crimea, they need to create something that will attract attention. Active family holiday, a healthy lifestyle, extreme sports and any new sports and trends - this is certainly a trend today.

Spectacular workout, or in common parlance “street fitness”, under the scorching sun of Tarkhankut
convinced the audience that those GTO standards with which it is now fashionable to “intimidate” -
this is baby talk compared to simple “street fitness”...

Already the preliminary sale of tickets, when more than five thousand applicants bought up “festival visas,” showed that the organizers correctly grasped the trend. That’s why they even tripled the duration of the festival. Let us clarify that not only amateur competitions take place here, stages of serious competitions take place here, for example, from August 1, the Russian Windsurfing Championship and the final stage of the Russian Kiteboarding Cup will be held.

Fireworks on the first day of the festival kicked off a whole week of extreme impressions,
which are promised to thousands of viewers.
