Zorbing at Southern Comfort

Zorbing is the adventurous activity of rolling downhill in a big transparent plastic ball made of transparent materials. The rider is strapped into the inner sphere of the ball and cushioned between a layer of air acting as a shock absorber and lessening the bumps while rolling. The fun begins when you get launched down the gentle slope at Southern Comfort gaining speed and going head over heels with each revolution.
