Sling Racing: Difference between revisions

While many of the region's favored sports - such as wegsphere, [[Shock-ball]] and [[Swoop Racing]] - are popular, a repidly growing activity is the sport of Sling racing.

Introduced to [[Kumauri]] a decade ago, sling racing has recently emerged into the [[Caraadian]] cultural mainstream with the influx of media attention and high-priced sponsorships. Sling racers are lightweight air vehicles (like [[Swoop Racing|swoops]]) that are speedily maneuvered through dangerous, narrow mountain canyons. The vehicles have [[Antigravs|antigrav]] drive units, but much of the vehicle's speed and maneuverability comes from the independently adjustable wings and airfoils, which catch the treacherous winds that whip through the canyons.
