Temple of courage



Ryan had the guts to go......

This speed slide is for the brave at heart. There is a height restriction of 1.2 meters for safety reasons. The speed slide begins at the aptly named ruins of the Temple of Courage. Here swimmers drop a heart stopping 17 meters, equal to the height of a four-story building. They slide down a 70-meter long chute, hurtle under a bridge and gradually come to gentle halt, in the chute. It is completely safe, even though this slide looks and feels absolutely terrifying.

Dave Zip Slide



Here are some pics of Dave and Mike doing the Zip Slide at Sun City. Dave was so nervous that his knees were wobbling.
