Liquid Mountaineering, Algarve, Portugal

Liquid Mountaineering is a new sport which is attempting to achieve
what man has tried to do for centuries: walk on water. Or to be more
precise: running on water.

We are developing the sport from scratch.
By accident we found out that with the right water repellant equipment you can run across bodies of water, just like a stone skimming the surface. It's a difficult technique, involving the right water conditions, making use of the surface tension, speed and angle. It's hard work to even make a few steps, but once you get the hang of it, you actually do get some distance! 

To run over water is not comparable to anything you are familiar with, like ice or any other surface for that matter. It feels more like running on an invisible carpet that could tear at any moment. When you do actually make a perfect run is just an awesome feeling. We are still pioneering the sport and the techniques to run across water, but we're pretty sure it could be the next big thing. 

We're truly lucky to live in this historic time when technology and human skill come together to make the impossible possible. 

You can follow our progress through our blog at  http://liquidmountaineering.blogspot.com

Please note as Liquid Mountaineering is not recognized by the Turismo De Portugal we can't actually sell this. By purchasing an Extreme Algarve T for only €25 we'll throw in a free Liquid Mountaineering experience.
