Full description
You will be taken on an adrenaline-packed tour of stunning Lake Wakatipu. Sit back in the state-of-the-art cockpit of this semi-submersible machine and get ready to feel the G-force as your expert pilot provides you with an experience you’ll never forget.
Looking through the F-16 fighter-grade glass you’ll see the sky disappear as your pilot descends into a dive underwater for 5-15 seconds, and then launches 18ft (6 meters) into the air. You can also roll on a 90-degree angle, do tight doughnut turns and much more.
With top speeds of 50 mph (80 kph) on water and 25 mph (40 kph) underwater, this ride is guaranteed to get your heart pumping. Trips are one-on-one with your pilot so you can push your own limits, flying above or below the crystal clear waters.
