This is one promotion video of the archery games at the Olympics. They use the Great Wall of China one of the seven wonders in the world as the setting. There is actually not much action in the game of archery but it is a sport that will trains one to be focus and accurate just like any other sports just that it is using the tool of the arrows.

Shooting focus

Moving on to the next sport that seems less focused. Archery has been an official game in the Olympics for many years. The spectators that were at the games were not that many compared to some other games maybe because of the content of the game. One will be there just to watch people doing the same thing shooting arrows but for those who appreciate, it is an excitement when you see both players shooting accurately to maintain their records. Focus is the key to the game and perhaps it may seems simple to just show the arrow, but in actual fact it is not that easy. Strength is really required to pull the bow and endurance to hold it to take aim.

Olympics coming fast
To think about it, Olympics is coming real fast. It is suppose to be an exciting event but there seems to be many things going on that affect the mood. Will we have the time to actually watch the games? I hope to be in that relaxing mode when watching the games. I remembered the last Olympic I didn't really have that time could only get to watch some of the highlights. Sometimes it also depends on the brodcasting station. They will only show sports that the particular country is good at and some of the other sports are not shown or not much at all. It will be good that if almost all the sports can be featured at least show the good games so that people who played them can get to watch them.

Dance sport
There will actually be some sports in the Olympic that will not include its medals in the medal tally but they will be competiting at the games. These are known to be demonstration sports and to see whether they will be included in the medal tally next time. One of such sport is actually ballroom dancing. There is a new term for this event known as dance sport. Instead of just being an art, it is also now a dance.

Equestrian
Here is a video on what Equestrian is about. Kind of think that many does not really know much about this sport. After watching it, it is in fact quite interesting to see how the rider crosses all the obstacles without any faults. It is a game whereby not only the participant has to be focused, his companion which is the horse has to be focused also. One more thing they have to cooperate with each other to cross all the obstacles.

Romaleos
Oh this is the shoe specially for weightlifting. It is deigned for strength. Contoured thermplastic polyurethane heel wedge cups heel and supports foot for lifting stability - replacing the wooden heel wedge that has been used since the 1960s. Different heel heights for varying athlete sizes and weights. With such technology in shoes and the sportswear of athletes, they should be able to enhance the performance of them if they are really useful and at the Olympics, perhaps we can see more recording breaking events.
