Zorbing

Zorbing

is a new exciting sport. A zorb itself is a huge plastic ball (3-3,5 metres tall) which contains another ball. There is a small entrance hole so you can squeeze into the smaller ball. The ball rolls down the hill and so do you. A zorb can reach up to 50-60 km an hour when it’s rolling down.

Zorbing was invented in the 1990s just for fun. Now it is very popu­lar in New Zealand, Australia and in many other countries.

Zorbing is very safe. You are strapped inside the ball, and there is a cushion of air between you and the ground. All people from children to their grandparents can do it. Kids are usually braver than their parents.
