As the website www.zorb.com boasts, ZORB® globe riding is the latest and greatest adventure activity to come out of New Zealand. Yes, that's right – New Zealand - the innovative little country at the bottom of the world (next to the penguins) that brought you Bungy Jumping, Hobbits, and a range of other crazy things to do while on vacation!! There are also zorbing opportunities in Tennessee.
Zorbing orbing is generally performed on a gentle slope, but can also be done on a level surface, permitting more rider control. In the absence of hills some operators have constructed inflatable, wooden or metal ramps. The Zorb facilities in New Zealand and in TN offer dry rides and wet rides. Wet rides amp up the excitement by adding water to the orb so that the rider gets soaked on their way down the track.
Sounds like a awesome way to beat the heat this scorching summer
