The Jungle NI Tree Tops (Video)
« on: June 06, 2012 »

With a family full of adrenaline junkies for my mums birthday we decided to go to the Jungle NI.  My parents are both over 60 and done the tree top high ropes.  My Parents  8)

It was a great days craic with a few of us doing the Zorbing at the end. 

Here is a quick video I made from the High ropes. http://acunamatadaar.blogspot.com/

That looks like a great course, and you got lovely weather for it. Its certainly high up, and in a great forest location.

I did a brief high ropes course at Woodhall a couple of weeks back. Similar ideas

Oisin class video. We done Woodhall in an adventure race after a kayak section from toome.  I got 6 in the leap of faith the others done Jacobs ladder. We were against the clock that day so couldn't get the full enjoyment out of it.

The gopros are really showing of our sports and hobbies well.

What was the jacobs ladder like? I've done one in Scotland and found it hard enough, but the one looked even more difficult.

I love the camera just for ease of use and what I like to call mountablitiy, you can stick it on anywhere.

I didn't do it the other three done it. It looked good if you had the right technique. As you know the idea was to get all three up each step of the ladder. You couldn't touch the safety wire or the support wires. Just team members and the beams that made up the ladder. Team work, balance and a bit of strength. Our team got joint highest. The next one looked really difficult and as we were on the clock they decided to leave it rather than wasting time.
