Climbing trees. Like bouldering, but more about full body skill than just grip strength, and also improves a lot with practice. I have a map of trees of varying difficulty in NYC parks.

Competitive duplicate bridge. It’s one of the only games where hobbyists can sit across from the best in the world. (Poker is another - but that’s much more expensive.)
