Into The Blue

On those days when you are juggling life’s little stresses, wouldn’t it be lovely if you could just escape it all and roll across the world in a giant bubble instead? Oh, sweet freedom.

Well, we might just have the thing for you — it’s called zorbing and it is basically an outdoor thrill roll in a cushioned plastic sphere.

Try it for two with today’s Big Deal for either Harness or Aqua Zorbing from Into the Blue.

Giant plastic bubble adventure

Option one is for a Harness Zorbing thrill ride down a hill, with you and your companion sharing the same big plastic bubble. Both of you will be strapped in together for what will basically be a tumble down the turf with various twists and turns.

This would be a great starter adventure for anyone who has never tried zorbing before. It will take place on a specially tracked out course and will last around thirty seconds. This may not sound like a huge amount of time but when you are rotating at ever increasing speed on a fairly steep slope with just a harness, it’s definitely long enough for maximum exhilaration.

If you are keen to give it this a shot but are a little concerned about bumps and bruises, bear in mind that your zorb will have a smart cushioning system to protect you.

Exhilarating course

Your thrill roll will take place on a specially tracked out, cordoned off zorb course where you will strapped in and taken care of by a professional team. Before it starts, you will get a briefing session with full instructions on how to ride your sphere.

Spectators are welcome to take photos and videos, so be sure bring a pal along with a camera to record both your facial expressions.

Your zorb ride will be brought to you by Into the Blue, experienced adventure weavers who have been helping people to make special memories for over twenty years.

Just add water

Or you could go aqua zorbing instead and be thrown around in a massive inflatable hamster ball filled with thirty litres of water (don’t worry, that’s not enough for you to be underwater with, but it is enough for you to slip and slide around in).

This is possibly one of the silliest things you could do with your day, which in itself is enough of a reason to do it — just imagine what it feels like to be inside a washing machine in the spin cycle and you get the picture.

Unlike the Harness Zorbing, you won’t be strapped in, meaning you will be bouncing and sloshing about on the inside of the plastic sphere — don’t worry though, it will just feel like rebounding off the walls of a bouncy castle.

The roll lasts around thirty seconds but people find that it’s one of those slow motion experiences that feels much much longer, especially when you are screaming or laughing.

Just don’t forget to bring your swimming gear and a towel, as this revolving water ride is going to be a wet one.

Are you ready to roll?

Today’s Big Deal for either a harness or aqua zorbing adventure offers you the chance to have an adrenaline pumping experience with your favourite person.
