Play Stuntman and Jump into the Giant Air Bag

27 May 2016 By Alan Straton

For the first time ever in the Eastern Cape festival goers can twist, flip, spin, somersault and freefall before landing on a giant airbag at the SPAR Kirkwood Wildsfees.

The Adventure Province experience is being sponsored by Eastern Cape Parks and Tourism in line with the branding of the Eastern Cape.

Festival goers brave enough to jump will be taken 14 metres in the air before they take the leap into fresh air, with a giant airbag breaking their fall.

Jumps cost R50 per person.

Another high-adrenaline show is the extreme motorcycle show by the hunky 11-time South African trials champion “one wheel” Brent le Riche.

This festival favourite will be doing wild and wonderful tricks on his motorcycle on Saturday at 11h15am-11h45am and  1h30pm-2pm, on Sunday at 9h15am-9h45am and 11h15am-11h45am.

The 2016 SPAR Kirkwood Wildsfees takes place from Friday, June 24 to Sunday, June 26.
