Challenges and adrenaline galore By Viktor Chong viktorchong@thestar.com.my U nder the light of the morning sun, a couple of skateboarders navigated the perilous contours of the Skate Park.

A couple of them popped Ollies, Flips and Grabs while the daredevil stunt bikers could be observed flying without wings.

At 30 hectares, the Putrajaya Challenge Park in Precinct 5 plays host to some of the best extreme sports in Putrajaya.

Opened in 2009, the park offers indoor and outdoor activities such as rock climbing, mountain biking and skateboarding.

The indoor rock climbing facility has an impressive area of 2,100 sq ft with a number of vertical and trapezoidal climbing walls.

Brave individuals can embrace their inner spider monkey and scale the foreboding heights, which reaches a height of around 20 metres.

On the other hand, a grassy knoll to the rear of the skate park features bike riding activities such as dirt jump, pump track, north shore element and slope-style jump.

The customised mountain terrain accommodates the 9.1km of biking trail which leads into challenging and rugged terrains.

For those who plan to let off steam at the Putrajaya Challenge Park, always remember to wear your safety gear and bring your dare devil along! ===================================================================== Opening hours: 10am — 10pm Address: Jalan P5, Presint 5,                 62200 Putrajaya,                 Wilayah Persekutuan Putrajaya =====================================================================.
