They used the word "extreme" 15 times, sigh. I didn't realize wakeboarding was an "extreme" water sport. TIL.

  Sigh, Yes, wakeboarding is an extreme sport. Just because you personally might feel that it’s “not extreme enough” doesn’t change that fact. The category of extreme sports is about risks of serious injury or death, not about how “Rad” people perceive them to be. > Contusions, abrasions, strains, sprains, low back pain and rib fractures are common injuries experienced in wakeboarding.

    Not sure that list of example injuries supports the “risks of serious injury or death” claim, but ymmv. If “contusions and abrasions” needs to be spelled out, it seems like someone’s padding the list. :)
