The Zorb - Rotorua

Zorbing - only in New Zealand.


The Zydro ride is described as a cross between a waterslide and a rollercoaster. The other option is Zorbit, where the zorber is harnessed securely inside the zorb. I decided to do the Zydro on the zigzag route - I was told that the zigzag is cooler than the straight run.

If you manage to stay standing during the whole ride you get another ride and a t-shirt for free. Dream on.
The only downside of the zorb was that the hillside was too short.

Hmm. There was a ride here in Bruxelles that did something like that. I can't remember where though...
Oh! It was one I used to go to as a kid? Waterzee? Zeewater? Zeepark? I can't remember the name. *sulks*

Ah well.
looks like you had a good time though. That's always nice. ;D

Love,
