How to play Bumper Ball?
Bumper Balls, or rather Zorbing or Zorb Balls was invented by Andrew Akers and Dwane van der Sluis in 1994. It gained popularity in many countries around the world, including England, Australia, Canada, Japan and the United States. In this particular type of football or soccer all players wear an infaltable ball which enables safe tackels and bumps. THe balls are made of light form of plastic and supported by solid glueing and inside-built strings. This actually makes an extra few pounds a player has to carry but the possibilities of using the new “weapon” way outgo all inconveniences. When accelarating to a proper speed and gaining momentum, a player becomes a bullet-kind of danger. With all right angles and momentum, players may bump into each other and bounce a few feet away!
Bumper Ball is fun for all ages!
No matter of age, gender or physical condition and form, bumper balls are designed for almost everyone from kids to elderly people. Wearing the ball is as easy as putting on a larger school backpack; all you have to do is slide your arms into belts and grab the handles which enable steering and controlling the ball. Gaining momentum gets easier with every step and the only physically involving moment is getting back standing. Bumping off each other only sounds dangerous as it normally is in regular types of contact sports but in Bumper Ball tackling means actual pleasure. It comes right after breaking through the primal fear of falling down, when you actually realise that the ball you’re surrounded with makes a perfect “kevlar” against all bumps, fallings and generally staying out of your desired way.
