Too adrenaline buzzes

A sea, a sun… What could be better than a relaxing day on the beach? 

To sit there under the sun, feeling the warmth of it touching your skin and feel the soft smooth sand beneath your feet. You can see the water; it is clear and rich deep blue in color. Seagulls are flying around, but their blathering doesn’t disturb the atmosphere of peace and quiet. Time to time, you look into the cloudless cerulean blue sky and see the perfection of life. You can see all the sights of summer; children are building sand castles along the oceans edge, elderly couples are indulged in good books. Gradually, you close your eyes, letting yourself to enjoy the sounds of the ocean, its rhythmic pounding of the waves, which represses all of your worries.Finally, you are at the point where your skin can no longer take the harsh rays of the blistering summer sun.  You want to run as fast as your feet can carry you toward to an endless pool of crystal blue water.

On your way to the sea, your eyes quiet suddenly notice a big, bright signboard “WATER RIDES”. Something clicks in your head. You have an uncontrolled wish for having a ride on one of these attractions. You certainly don’t know how this trip could end and without thinking about anything, you are going directly to the reception desk of these attractions.

You see a huge variety of entertainment which is presented to you. WOW! So many possibilities! Here “tablet”, “banana”, “butterfly” are yellow looking things tied to a speed motorboat, which accelerates very quickly and you feel like flying over the waves, all possible types of trips on a parachute, quad bike and jet ski, also, are provided to you. Yeah, that's exactly what you want. A little thought, you decide to ride on the “tablet”. This is so much fun!


Now you're standing on the beach, in anticipation of your little journey, waiting for your turn. The assistant gave you a protective jacket to keep you safe in case of a sudden drop in to the water. The vest is little for you and has a smell of something incomprehensible and disgusting. But these are little things, which are not worth your attention. So, it's your turn. You were put in a chair of this funny ride. The fun is starting!
Very slowly, the boat picks up speed, nice breeze pulls your hair. The warm rays of the sun warm you and smile appears on your face.

Without warning, your feet move above your head.
It does not, already, seem that the boat is slowly wallowing, and is jumping the waves at the speed of light.



Gentle breeze turns into a terrible whirlwind, which tries to tear your hair. Salt sprays sprinkle  your face and deprive you of air. You do not feel warm, you have a feeling that you are at the North Pole, despite the fact that the temperature around is + 30 degrees.


At some point, you begin to imagine that you will spend the rest of your life in the hospital with a broken spine, because every time, when the boat jumps on the wave, you hit your back and a head on the bumpers of the “tablet”.
Fortunately, after a few minutes this incredible journey comes to an end and you are barely alive laying out on the land. Now you have something to tell your relatives, and something that you will never forget.


So, if you want to spend your annual vacation in a bed, complaining on pain all over the body, you should try this type of entertainment.

Now, anticipating the Christmas holidays, maybe you have already started to plan your holiday in the warm parts of the world. So, do you want to have something familiar in your feature trip? According to majority of people under forty years you ask, will say that it is one of their favorite vacation preferences to go for a spin on water ride. Despite the fact that almost everyone gets injuries during this trip.
In concordance with the Minister of Tourism and Resorts of Сrimea Sergei Kiriyenko, rides in the resort towns are dangerous for tourists. For example, in August 2015, on the coast of the Lazarev district of Sochi a boat has faced and towed by watercraft "tablet". As the result, a 21-year-old girl who had come on the resort from the Tula region was killed.

There are some reasons of such terrible accidents:
The owners of the water entertainment equipment don’t comply with the safety rules, as the result, there are accidents and falling of travelers.  For example, in pursuit of earnings, owners often take on board more passengers than the water attraction сan hold, or owners don’t check the technical conditions of the rides, where breakage can happen. Moreover, most water activities, offered to tourists on the coast, are illegal.

The Minister of Sport, Tourism and Youth Policy of the Russian Federation Vitaly Mutko, in his speech to the holidaymakers emphasized that tourists should be vigilant and that they should follow these tips:

  • Carefully study the rules of using attraction;
  • Follow safety precautions during  the using attraction;
  • When you are choosing a ride, consider the state of your health.
However, many tourists like these rides  and do not find anything wrong in them.

So, a holidaymaker from Aleksin, said:
“I rode a "Banana" this summer in Abkhazia. I really liked it. It is unforgettable experience. At first, I thought that this attraction was not safe, but I was surprised how fun and easy it was. Next year, I’ m planning to ride it once again”.


If you behave cautiously and wisely and don’t ignore basic security measures, active holidays on the sea will deliver you a lot of fun! You should take into account your medical conditions before allowing yourself to go on certain high speed rides. Some rides can be very frightening and stressful for you and your children and should be avoided.
