We all have someone in our lives who likes to push the limits and get their blood pumping as their favourite type of activity. For these adrenaline-seeking friends or family members, it might be a bit tricky trying to find a gift that excites them, especially if thrill-seeking is not something that resonates with you. There are plenty of options to choose from, though, and as with any great gift-giving, you need to make sure that you take an interest and listen to your friends both to enhance your relationship with them and to make sure that your gift represents that you take the time in your life to consider them. Finding something you know they will love can become your own adventure. Here are some ideas to help you on your way:
Experience Days
There are tonnes of different experience days on offer for all different kinds of activities and to suit all budgets.
Race track days - you can select which kind of car your recipient would like to test out and let them loose on a race track.
Treetop adventures - these come in ranges of difficulty; some are suitable for children to join in with and can include climbing walls, zip lines, and all kinds of different challenges up in the air.
Indoor skydiving - these experience packs generally include one to one tuition before the event and a certain amount of time within the wind tunnel. You can also add certificates, high definition videos, and pictures of your experience.
Zip Wires - with Wales, the UK, offering the fastest zip wire in the world, this can be an excellent experience for anyone wanting to cross this off their bucket list. With a GoPro filming the whole experience, it is something that the recipient can relive again and again. There are many great zip wires across the globe to choose from.
There are many more extreme experience days to pick from, from axe throwing and escape rooms to assault courses, quad biking, and paintballing. There is something for every action lover in your life.
Experience days can all be a great way of planning a short trip that you can bring friends and family along, whether they want to choose to participate in the adventure, be a spectator, or join you for a meal and drinks after. It can also mean travelling to a part of your country that you might not have been to before, so it can be an excellent experience for anyone who wants to join in.
Protective Gear
Your thrill-seeking recipient is likely to have an array of hobbies and interests that call for the need for safety equipment. Whether they are into watersports or skateboarding, there are always many accessories that come with these kinds of activities that can make great gifts.
Safety equipment is an excellent choice because it is something that the gift recipient will use frequently. Research the best mountain bike knee pads, helmets that your friend or family member can use across various sports, mouth guards, and more to choose a great gift. If you’re unsure of the best choices, speak to an expert to see what they recommend with the information you have about your friend or family member. They might advise that some safety gear is best to be tried on to ensure that the fit is secure; otherwise, it could become a hazard. If this is the case, then make sure you get a gift receipt and offer to take them to exchange the item if necessary.
Vouchers
Vouchers may seem like a less personal gift, but they can be a great option if you take the right time and consideration. When looking at the above experience days, you may not be sure about the availability of your recipient, especially if the experience is something that needs planning and travel arrangements. If that’s the case, you can arrange an evening to have some drinks and plan the adventure together. Vouchers for certain stores you know they buy products from are also great because they can choose exactly what they need or want. Vouchers can generally be used both online and in-store so make sure you check this or select the best option for your recipient if this is not the case.
