There must be a word for it

[andygates]

There are a whole bunch of sports, games, activities and hobbies which are summed up in the clumsy set descriptor human strength and skill expressed through wonderful toys.  Cycling, kayaking, kiting, archery, skateboarding, surfing, all this stuff that has fantastic tech but no engines or brains.  The Germans must have a word for it.  Is there one in English?

The Germans must have a word for it.

I just said to ka_crow the other day that the Germans have cool words for stuff.

Let us know if you find out what it is in English OR German.
