Please note the devices available on E-bay are fakes.
Serious injuries have occured to people using fakes – a site was site up using fakes at the Lost Valley in Maine and the fake device resulted in a broken back to the rider. We have 13 years of operation and have NEVER had a broken back. Despite very stringent safety measures we have had had minor injuries
Regrettably we cannot stop fakes being marketed but orignal globes from the inventors, Zorb Limited, are not sold as the devices are too expensive with the necessary safety features to be practical for sale to the home market (over USD6500).
The safest way to experience a Zorb ride is to go to an official Zorb site – see http://www.zorb.com
