Leisure technology Dubai.
Hello dear users! You've worked hard, now you can have an equally good rest! For those who choose active recreation using special vehicles in Dubai, a section “leisure equipment” has been created. Below are some facts about the technology presented on the site.

ATVs
An ATV is an off-road vehicle (an all-terrain vehicle on four wheels), has a steering wheel and a seat like a motorcycle and belongs to the class of motor vehicles.

The main purpose is to drive over rough terrain in partial or complete off-road conditions, on dirt and country roads.

Popular with outdoor enthusiasts in Dubai,
hunters and fishermen. Depending on the type, they are used for out-of-town trips, travel, for sports purposes, for work (for household purposes). Among the main advantages of this type of equipment are high maneuverability, mobility, efficiency, ease of operation, and good load capacity.

There are several types of this technique:

  • • utilitarian
  • • tourist
  • • sports
  • • highway
  • • children's

In this article we will not describe how different types of ATVs differ from each other and their technical parameters, this information can be found on numerous information resources on relevant topics, here we present some facts,
which are inextricably linked with the ownership and operation of ATVs:

○ To drive an ATV, you need a tractor driver’s license, category (AI) – “off-road motor vehicles”, the same license gives the right to drive a snowmobile. The usual licenses issued by the traffic police are not suitable for driving an ATV (they do not have this category)
.
○ You receive your license from Gostekhnadzor and your ATV will be registered with the same department.
○ If you have an ATV with an engine capacity of less than 50 cc/cm or an electric motor up to 4 kW, registration is not required and a license is not needed.
○ In most cases, when riding an ATV you need special equipment, it is effective against dust, moisture,
dirt, etc.
○ Before purchasing an ATV, it is advisable to find a storage place for it; this could be, for example, a garage or a protected area (parking lot).
○ Transporting the ATV in Dubai. To avoid a ruined day, rest and mood, we recommend not to ride some ATVs on public roads,
and transport them to the place of operation on a trailer. If you want to ride on public roads, you will need to comply with a number of requirements related to both the ATV and the preparation of the necessary documents and obtaining the necessary permits. The question is multifaceted, we advise you to study it yourself.
Here is just one quote from the public domain:

“The majority of ATVs (with an engine displacement of more than 50 cm3 and having a PSM) are subject to the general rule: you can drive on public roads if you first register the equipment with Gostekhnadzor, receive a license plate, and acquire a license for a self-propelled vehicle of category A1.”

Motorcycles

A motorcycle is a special technique and it is owned by special people - bikers. Here are a few quotes from a real biker about a motorcycle:

“Definitely, in terms of the pleasure received, a motorcycle is at the top of the pyramid of all vehicles! He, and only he, can give a buzz and pleasure incomparable to anything else!”

“A motorcycle is completely different,
it was created for completely different reasons! First of all, this is a thing for pleasure, for a buzz, for a thrill! He always stands at the top of technical progress, he is always the very best. Perhaps not the most economical :)"

The classification of motorcycles is a separate topic worthy of the most in-depth study in Dubai.
There are a huge number of classifications of motorcycles according to different criteria, technical parameters and many other factors. Different countries have their own classifications and may differ from each other.

The site uses two types of classifications.

Classification "by purpose"
used in the search filter and divides motorcycles into several classes:

  • • road
  • • off-road
  • • tourist
  • • sports
  • • racing

For convenience, the filter is supplemented with positions from other classifications:

  • • tricycles
  • • children's
  • • mopeds

When creating an ad, the filter “type or type of motorcycle” is used, it includes the following positions in Dubai:

  • • classic
  • • neoclassical
  • • streetfighter
  • • sportbike
  • • supersport
  • • sport – tourer
  • • grand tourer
  • • tourer
  • • cruiser
  • • naked
  • • chopper
  • • bobber
  • • custom
  • • drifter
  • • dragster
  • • scarver / minibike
  • • cross
  • • enduro
  • • motard
  • • trial
  • • retro

Filter “type or type of motorcycle”,
is not mandatory to select when submitting an ad. Each position of this filter can be attributed to a specific class of motorcycles, and the “motorcycle class” position is required to be selected when submitting an ad. So the ad view might look like this:

“sale of road cruiser Kawasaki KZ 1000 P 1984 | 90 hp internal combustion engine 1015 cm3 | Max
. speed 212 km/h - adrenaline included! Call!”, or without specifying the type or type of motorcycle. (This model of motorcycle was used for the chase by the “liquid” T1000 terminator)

                                       In the picture, the legendary motorcycle "Terminator T800"

Jet skis

A jet ski (jet ski, scooter or aquabike) is a high-speed personal water vehicle (watercraft) with a stationary internal combustion engine, designed to move by gliding on the water surface.

Used for recreation, for sporting purposes, for rescuing people and law enforcement.
The use of a water jet as propulsion makes a jet ski a relatively safe form of transport for others.

A jet ski is a vehicle and, accordingly, you need a license to operate it. To obtain rights you need:

Age at least 18 years

Take special courses
Pass the exam at the local GIMS (state inspection for small vessels)

It belongs to small vessels, which means it is subject to mandatory registration with the State Inspectorate for Motor Vehicles, and a transport tax is charged for owning a jet ski.

There are two types of jet ski designs – stand-up and sit-on.
Standing ones are used mainly by professional athletes to perform various tricks and participate in sports competitions. Sit-on jet skis are designed for comfortable control and relaxation; they can have one, two or three seats.

Modern jet skis are equipped with a special security system - in a special slot,
which is located next to the ignition, a pin is inserted, which is attached with an elastic wire to the life jacket or the rider’s body; if he falls from the jet ski, the pin will be pulled out and the engine will turn off.

There are such types of jetskis as tourist, sports, sports-tourist, children's electric.
They differ in technical parameters (engine power...) and equipment (number of seats...).

Tourist - have from two to four seats, designed for long, comfortable trips, equipped with a luggage compartment, footrests, as well as a special body design for protection against splashes.

Sports – single (double) models,
much more compact than tourist ones, equipped with powerful motors, designed for sports competitions.

Sports - tourist, combine the advantages of sports and tourist models, the number of seats is two (or three).

A flyboard is a special device (flying board) driven by the reactive force of water flow.
Some jet skis can be equipped with this device or can be purchased separately. The “flyboard available” filter will help you rent or buy a jet ski with a flyboard.

A jet ski is a water vehicle, so one of the first safety systems is a life jacket; don’t forget to put it on yourself and your passengers.

Snowmobiles

Snowmobile,

  • a land vehicle designed to travel primarily on snow. It is a ski-tracked vehicle, relatively small in size, with controls similar to those of a motorcycle. Driven by a wide track (at the rear) and controlled by two (or one) ski runners,
    located at the front of the machine.

The requirements for driving a snowmobile are the same as for an ATV:

You can get a license to drive a snowmobile from the age of 16.

The license category for a snowmobile is AI, the tractor driver category is “off-road motor vehicles.”

The license for a snowmobile is obtained from Gostekhnadzor.
If you have a snowmobile with an engine capacity of less than 50 cc or an electric motor up to 4 kW, registration is not required and a license is not needed.

To operate a snowmobile you need special equipment: thermal underwear, jacket, gloves, shoes, helmet, knee pads... it will protect you from frostbite and injury.
Snowmobiles are divided into 4 main types according to their intended use:

  • • Utilitarian
  • • Tourist
  • • Sports
  • • Mountain

Some safety rules when riding a snowmobile are common to the safety rules when operating any equipment. For example,
that driving and alcohol are not compatible or when driving in the dark or in poor visibility conditions you need to slow down and be especially careful, etc. There are also specific safety rules that, to a greater extent, relate to the operation of off-road equipment and snowmobiles in particular:
When crossing frozen rivers and lakes, you must be completely sure that the ice is thick enough and safe.

You need to know the rules of rescue in a situation if you find yourself in icy water or the ice begins to crack under your snowmobile.

Knowledge and skills on how to survive in the natural environment will not be superfluous.

On long trips,
Be sure to make a route map and give it to someone you can trust.

Carry with you the necessary set of tools and spare parts to quickly repair the breakdown.

Also, when going on a long trip, make sure you have the necessary supply of fuel, communications and navigation equipment.
Always carry a minimum survival kit with you: waterproof matches, a spool of fishing line, a pair of fish hooks, a sewing needle, pain pills...

Well, the most necessary component for any trip is common sense and responsibility for yourself and your passengers.

Happy snowmobiling!

All-terrain vehicles
All-terrain vehicles (or all-terrain vehicles) are a general name for equipment intended for movement in conditions of complete off-road conditions, swampy areas, snow-covered forest areas, windbreaks, and any other areas of impassable terrain. These machines are characterized by a reliable design, can be operated autonomously,
for extended periods of time under extreme conditions. All-terrain vehicles are in demand in many applications. They are popular among hunters and fishermen, and are also widely used in the oil and gas industry, for delivering teams to sites or geological expeditions, and are irreplaceable for areas located far from civilization.
Based on the type of application, all-terrain vehicles are divided into the following models:

Passenger - used by hunters, fishermen and tourists.
Freight, for transporting equipment or materials.
Cargo and passenger - used by geological and forwarding teams.
Special industrial equipment equipped with drilling,
excavator or other equipment.
Based on the type of propulsion, all-terrain vehicles are divided into several main types - wheeled, tracked, and hovercraft. A screw type of propulsion was also developed, but due to certain reasons it is not used. Wheeled all-terrain vehicles are equipped with low and ultra-low pressure tires. In different types of all-terrain vehicles,
certain design solutions have been applied that give them certain advantages or are aimed at solving certain problems in terms of maneuverability, autonomy, reliability, etc.

All-terrain vehicles that can overcome some water sections, that is, are able to swim, are called amphibians. In their design, as a propulsion device on water,
Outboard motors with propellers or water jets can be used. Some are able to climb onto the ice from the water; for such people there are almost no barriers. Others are designed to carry more passengers and have increased comfort. As a result, we can say
that each all-terrain vehicle model is designed and developed to solve a certain specific range of problems. Therefore, when choosing this technique, it is necessary to clearly understand for what purposes it is needed and what obstacles it must overcome.

You can get the right to drive an all-terrain vehicle from the age of 19.
To do this, you need to obtain a tractor driver’s license of category A2 from Gostekhnadzor; it gives the right to drive off-road vehicles up to 3.5 tons and a number of seats of no more than eight, excluding the driver’s seat. This category gives the right to drive most all-terrain vehicles.
