Russian hockey player Alexander Ovechkin traditionally actively spends a vacation after a hard season in the NHL. This time, the captain of Washington also showed subscribers a video where he, along with his son, is engaged in a very extreme type of rest.

The courage of the Ovechkin in the blood!

Active family vacation

Ovechkin’s current vacation after a rather early departure of Washington from Stanley’s Cup is filled with events. First of all, Wayne Gretzka, who had beaten the sniper record, visited his homeland, where he received congratulations.

After that, the hockey player went to Turkey for a month with his family, where he had already managed to light up in public space, touching all his countrymen on Russia’s Day. Together with other popular athletes, he performed the state anthem, which delighted millions of citizens of his native country.

On June 18, Alexander gave devoted fans the next reason for admiration. A video appeared on social networks where the athlete, along with his eldest son Sergey, is engaged in Paraseling. This is a rather extreme type of rest – a person with a boat is lifted above the water with a special parachute attached with a cable.

– The courage is vaccinated since childhood! – The hockey player team signed the video, accompanying him with three laughing emoji.

“Normal flight!”

Surely while watching the video, the leaders of Washington grabbed their hearts and counted new gray hair on their heads. In hockey, in principle, such entertainment of hockey players is not particularly welcomed, because there is always a threat of injury. During Paraseling, there are certain risks, so experts recommend using a helmet, as well as wear a life jacket.

If the Ovechkin family went into vests, then the heads were not protected. But loyal fans on social networks were completely not worried about the safety of the athlete, on the contrary, admiring the courage of the famous hockey player and his son.

“Sasha always knew how to relax as it should, now he teaches his son, well done,” Alexander wrote.

– Normal flight! Hold it, legend. Son – Krasava, fighter. All the best to you! Good rest. G in your strength and impressions! – Alexei wished

– What could be better when father and son spend time together. Just wonderful! – I admired @paul_semenoff.

– Rest, legend! – Turned @arseny_bykov.

– Eagles! – Compared Ovechkin with magnificent birds @vihrantiterror.

The charge with positive emotions is a very important part of preparation for the new season. Ahead of Alexander, a few more days of vacation in Turkey, where he already plans to start preparing and physically for difficult confrontations in the NHL, where new records are waiting for him.
