339--New Zealand: How to become a Zorbonaut @ CherieSpotting     Jan 26 2006 - 20:47 PST cherie writes: What's a zorb? It's a plastic ball that you get zipped into. If you opt for the hydro-zorb, you get a bucket of complimentary water to slosh around with you inside. But there are many ways to zorb. You can zorb solo or with up to two friends. You can zorb zig-zag or straight. And you can zorb wet or dry! I did a wet solo zig-zag! My Canadian friends Colin, Sarah and Crystal joined me in the quest to get wet and dizzy. We did the ZORB at the Agrodome in Rotorua, New Zealand. Here are our Zorb photos.

We start at the Zorbonaut pick-up station. It's where all the cool zorbers go these days. The zorb. Enter the plastic ball at your own risk. Cherie ready to zorb. The view from the top of the hill. Colin in the zorb. There he goes! Rolling, rolling, rolling. A new way to take a shower! Colin emerges. Colin gives the zorb a big thumbs up! The zorbs go back up the hill. Cherie enters the zorb. The view from inside the zorb. Cherie, pre-zorb. Cherie, post-zorb. Big thumbs up for the plastic ball! Ready to come out? I was dumped by a zorb! Crystal and the zorb. Crystal dives in. Ready to go? Thar she goes! Leaving the warmth of the zorb-womb. Crystal survives! All smiles. The zorb re-fueling station. (It's just air!) Sarah inside the zorb. I think she had a good time! Zorb...made in New Zealand. Sarah emerges. Post-zorb glow. Sarah...is the zorb champion of the world! You can take the zorb straight down the hill or chose a zig-zag path. This is a "starter" zorb for kids. I think they may have lost one. Cherie gives the zorb a thumbs up! What will they think of next? *Photo courtesy of Agrodome. Who is up for a sunset zorb? *Photo courtesy of Agrodome.
