ZORB | Rotorua | Man And Woman Inside ZORB Ball

You’re in for a wild ride @ ZORB ROTORUA

Superman dive into a giant inflatable ball and roll down Mt Ngongotaha with ZORB, where the fun will have you laughing uncontrollably.

Discover FOUR different ball rolling tracks – the world’s longest zig-zag Sidewinder Track, the smooth ‘n’ fast double Straight Track, MEGA Track – the longest, fastest and steepest track in all the land, and the Pipeline Track – which starts out with a wiggle, a weave, and then takes you whizzing through an arboreal tunnel! Think of it like a giant water slide, 40 litres of water (warm in winter, cool in summer) with no tumbling involved, just full on belly laughs from top to bottom. To this day, Rotorua is the ONLY location in New Zealand where you can experience this amazingly fun and bizarre bucket list activity.

Small acts make a big difference in our community. Did you know that we have picked up rubbish every day along SH5 for the last 14 years as part of our opening procedures? Every little bit counts and as you can see we take it very seriously. We also love a mana wave so if you see us cleaning up the road outside ZORB Rotorua in the morning, make sure you beep out!

We recently did some leadership training with @yellowumbrellanz and what we found is there`s no one combination of strengths that makes a great leader, it`s how you use them. What are your top 5 strengths?

The 2nd heat of 2024’s ZORBLYMPICS! A close one despite Hemana Hustler using a cheeky (possibly against the rules?) technique 👀 … The first down the hill was… Coconut Thunder ⛈️ but did he thunder to hard? 🫣

ZORBlympics athlete #3, coming in hot...once he figured out what a bio was and remembered what his name was. Lucky we came up with a better name for him, introducing the Selwyn Sizzler. Do you think he talks a big game?
