Zorb Smoky Mountains

Pigeon Forge is home to the first Zorb® in the U.S. — Zorb® Smoky Mountains. What, you ask, is a Zorb? Simply put, a Zorb is a large inflatable plastic ball that measures approximately 11 feet in diameter and weighs almost 200 pounds. But the Zorb’s vital statistics don’t begin to tell the whole story; it’s what you can do inside a Zorb that counts. Passengers — or Zorbonauts — fit inside the ball and experience countless thrills as the Zorb rolls several hundred feet down a hill. A cushion of air inside the ball protects the Zorbonauts throughout the descent. Welcome to the world of extreme sports in Pigeon Forge.

Zorb Smoky Mountains offers two types of Zorb rides, both very different. The Harness Zorb ride calls for the passenger to be strapped inside the Zorb with a harness. The result — very often a feeling of weightlessness as the ball rolls downhill. During the Hydro Zorb ride, Zorbonauts remain unharnessed but share the Zorb with a bucket of water, creating a very slippery ride. Up to three people can ride inside a Zorb ball. There is also a Zorb experience expressly designed for children under age six.

Zorb Smoky Mountains will open in Pigeon Forge in late 2007. Zorb originated in New Zealand, a country known for its extreme sports and outdoor adventures.
