Here are new stamps from Vanuatu Post featuring extreme Sports. Extreme sports is a popular term for activities perceived as having a high level of excitement. These activities often involve speed, height, a high level of physical exertion, and highly specialized gear. Extreme sports tend to be more solitary than traditional sports and differ due to the higher number of inherently uncontrollable variables such as weather and terrain. The stamps are extremely beautiful and best for the collectors of Adventure sports theme.
