Magboarding

Magboarding is a highly dangerous racing sport. Competitors race on boards using active train rails. 
They either begin as a magtrain is incoming or outgoing. Falling too far behind the other racers can result in being hit by the oncoming train. Going too fast ahead can result in a collision with an outgoing train. One of the only ways to stop is to hard break or to physically grind the end of the magboard against the magrail, but it comes with the risk of overheating and destroying the board or, possibly, the boarder's feet. 
There are two types of magboard races: sprint races and long races. Sprint races are shorter form races. There's technically no cheating in magboarding. Since only two people can fit side-on-side on the tracks, there's often physical violence involved between racers as they try to knock each other off when they get close to each other. This can result in serious injury or death.
