Is Zorbing Safe?
Yes, zorbing is perfectly safe! As you will be encased entirely in an airtight and waterproof plastic bubble, there's no danger of falling out. The balls are also made from durable materials that won't pop or leak. However, following the safety instructions when using a zorb is essential. For example, don't roll down a hill if it's too steep or if there are obstacles. It’s also worth mentioning that you should stay hydrated.
Is Zorbing for Two People or One?
If you want to experience the thrill of zorbing with a friend or family member, buying a two-person zorb is a fantastic idea worth considering. These are slightly larger than the single-person zorbs and have enough space so that you can both fit inside comfortably.
How Fast Do Zorbs go Downhill?
Depending on how fast you’re going and how steep the incline is, zorbs can pick up an unbelievable amount of speed when rolling downhill. The fastest ever recorded time for downhill zorbing was done by New Zealander Keith Kolver, who reached a whopping speed of 32 miles per hour (52 Km/h).
Can you get Dizzy from Zorbing?
Yes, you certainly can. Because you will be bouncing and rolling around inside the zorb, it’s essential to know your limits when it comes to this activity, so if you’re not feeling too well after lots of rolling and bouncing, it might be time to take a break.
However, one way to combat this is by using an aqua zorb - With a small amount of water in the zorb with the user; it helps to keep them upright and avoid dizziness when speeding down a hill!
What do you wear for Zorbing?
We highly recommend wearing sporty clothes if you want to participate in some zorbing yourself. Because you will be doing lots of running around and inside a giant plastic bubble, it will likely get warm inside the zorb! Shorts and T-shirts are best for this activity, but gym leggings or cycling shorts would also suffice.
