| Air Sphereing for Two | £56.00 |  |
| This unique experience combines the thrill of rolling down a hill inside an inflatable Sphere whilst flying in a vertical wind tunnel, which makes for a heady mix of adrenalin, exhilaration and intensity. Air-Sphereing is an incredible experience worth sharing. You will enter an 8 foot inflatable Sphere and let the mighty power of the 150mph Airkix Wind Tunnel do the rest as you enjoy the ride of your lives.\n\nAgenda\n\nUpon contact with the supplier you will be issued with a report time; it is important that you arrive no later than the report time given. On arrival you will have a fun briefing and will receive all necessary instruction. The two co-riders' will then enter the inflatable Sphere together and take their positions. As the Sphere is lifted off the ground by the 150mph airflow, the co-riders' will be introduced to, and share, the high octane, adrenalin fuelled world of Air-Sphereing. Expect to be on-site for approximately one hour. In terms of the length of the Air-Sphere ride itself.. if the wind tunnel did not have a roof, the forces of up to 150mph would blow you the equivalent distance to 4 laps of an athletics track, just over 1 mile!\n\nNotes\n\nOn purchasing this experience you will be issued with a voucher valid for ten months. You are then free to contact the venue to book a time for your Air Sphereing. The first Air-sphereing rides will be available from 1st January 2009.
