Introduction to Blokarting
Strap yourself in and prepare for the ride of your life. Blokarting is the newest adrenaline sport to make its way to England from New Zealand. This light, wind-powered go-kart can reach speeds of up to 90km an hour as you zoom along just inches above the ground.
Locations
- Cornwall
What does the activity include?
After your arrival and registration, you will attend a briefing, which will explain safety procedures and basic sailing theory. The instructor will explain the all important instructions on how to stop and you will be encouraged to move across the wind and then turn up wind letting the sail out to bring the kart to a halt. You will also be taught how to circle the kart and how to ‘tack’. As you practice at either end of a cross wind course forming a figure of eight you’ll soon build your confidence with the help of your expert instructor. You may even have chance to take part in a short race with your group to demonstrate your new-found skills
At the end, you will be presented with a personalised certificate as a memento of your experience.
