Giant Zorbing Ball

Zorbing is a unique and novel way of having fun with your friends, family, or group of strangers. The word ‘zorbing’ is a portmanteau of the words’ zoo’ and ‘rolling.’ It is a form of extreme sport where people roll down hills inside a giant inflatable ball called a Zorb. You might have seen people zorbing at parties and other events. If you have not yet heard about this, you should know that it is fun.

Why Should You Buy This?

We live in a world where everyone is always on the go. In this fast-paced and ever-changing society, many people want to find ways to slow down, reflect, and have fun with friends and family. Zorbing is the perfect solution because the activity is good for the soul. It is elegant in its simplicity, and there are no complicated rules, no highly skilled participants, and no protective gear. Anyone can do it. It is the ultimate low-key activity that can occur at any time, at any location, and with almost no setup required.

What are the characteristics of zorbing?

* You will need an inflatable ball to do this activity. The ball should be no more than two-thirds the size of a soccer pitch and no less than 60 inches in diameter.
* The air pressure in the ball should be at least 2-3 times greater than the air pressure outside the ball. For example, if you are using a ball that is 60 inches in diameter and inflating it with air, the air pressure should be at least 120 psi.
* You will need a hill or a sloped area with a gentle slope to launch the ball down. The smaller the hill or slope, the better. Ideally, you will have a spot with a gradient between one to four percent.
* You will need a strong group of friends or a large family to enjoy this activity with.

How to Play Zorbing

* Choose two people to be the ‘campers.’ The campers will wear the zorbing gear and be in charge of keeping the ball inflated.
* The other group members will be known as ‘rovers.’ The game’s object for the ruffians is to get the zorb into the hands of the campers by bouncing the ball on the ground and into theirs.
* The campers will need to run and move quickly to escape the chasing ruffians. The ruffians will be on a timer to inflate the ball and get it into the hands of the campers. If the ball is not successfully caught by the end of the timer, the game ends in a tie.

Conclusion

Zorbing is extremely easy to do, and it can be a lot of fun. If you are looking for something different to do or need an activity for a party or group gathering, this is a great choice. You will not be disappointed.
