Does anyone do any 'unusual' sports?

I ask because I compete trampolining and a very small branch off from that called double mini tramp.

Just thought it'd be nice to share any other uncommon sports people might do.

Many years ago I used to play waterpolo...

That is unusual! I haven't got a clue about waterpolo! I don't know if there's a ball or how you win or anything!

I used to do archery until my wrists buggered up (unrelated to archery I hasten to add!).

I have a friend whose DH plays Octopush/underwater hockey.

Cardio Tennis has started at Redbridge Sports Centre. It's a fantastic workout and really fun to up beat music. It doesn't matter if you have never played before. :-) It doesn't even matter if you never hit the ball.

Don't know if this counts but I've been learning kickboxing for about five months. Great fun, love it!

golemmings · 01/02/2012 20:31

I race kayaks...

Wolfiefan · 01/02/2012 20:36

Do you win? :o

lktoday5 · 01/02/2012 21:09

I've played both water and canoe polo in my time. Now 'just' a triathlete Smile

Kellamity · 01/02/2012 21:10

Littlechief my SIL plays Octopush!

hellhasnofury · 01/02/2012 21:10

I used to play canoe polo, I was also a slalom canoeist before kids.

thehairybabysmum · 01/02/2012 21:13

I do taekwondo and have recently started going to a proper boxing club, love both. I'm not a nutter either, I'm 42 and usually pretty mild mannered!

CelticPromise · 01/02/2012 21:30

I play rugby Smile

CelticPromise · 01/02/2012 21:33

And thinking of having a crack at a triathlon lk Smile

maybenow · 01/02/2012 21:35

i used to do loads of jiu jitsu... now i mountain bike, including sometimes 'freeriding' (ie. jumping)... i've also recently been for a few bmx lessons, not so unusual maybe, but quite unusual i think for a 36yr old woman!

lktoday5 · 03/02/2012 12:59

celtic you should. It's awesome. Women's races have a great atmosphere, really inclusive and a sprint distance isn't too horrifying

CardiCorgi · 06/02/2012 10:57

I want to do a winter triathlon, I got bronchitis before the last one I was meant to do. The cycling bit freaks me out a bit, though.

UniS · 06/02/2012 11:04

Now I just play unicycle hockey occasionally .
I used to ride off road unicycle- racing and orienteering. I would also enter unicycle 10km and track races at European events, but I wasn't very good at those disciplines and the UK has no structure to support them.

Back in my student days I played canoe polo badly.

Once or twice I have played stilt football.

slug · 06/02/2012 11:55

I used to play underwater hockey. I did it for years and was quite good at it actually.

For fun and to warm up we ussed to play underwater rugby. Now taht is a bizzare sport
