  • You and a friend are strapped in for the ride of your life!
  • Reach speeds of 30mph down the hill.
  • Cocktail of laughter, fear and exhilaration!

Harness Sphereing is the crazy new concept that has hit the UK by storm and rapidly earnt itself a 'must-do' status. Descending from from the thrill seeking dudes in New Zealand, this hilarious new experience guarantees an absolute riot for you and a friend. In essence you are strapped inside a 12foot inflatable ball rolling down a steep hill, but in practice Harness Sphereing is so much more! Once strapped in and ready to go, the adrenalin will start pumping as you begin to roll and spin toward speeds of up to 30mph! Riding the giant Sphere ball is as exhilarating as it is belly-achingly funny, expecially when combined with the smell of fear coming from your excited companion! Harness Spehering is an experience that you will never forget, and definitely want to do again and again.

Once you have arrived and been welcomed to the centre its time for you and a friend to be strapped straight into the Sphere. After registering (and maybe a small wait) you'll be ready to begin! No messing about here, just prepare for the ride of your life! Your Spheric home for this experience consists of two chambers; The first of these is the outer chamber and is the protective shell, standing at 12ft (3.6m) tall. Inside that is the inner chamber which is just 6ft (1.8m) tall, meaning a 3ft (0.9m) cushion of air is provided to take the edge off the bounce. Once you are completely ready, one of our instructors will give the ball a nudge and your rolling descent will begin! You can expect to reach speeds of up to 30mph on this fantastically disorientating experience, and you can definitely expect to be slightly dizzy once you've clambered out and stopped laughing!
