Bungee Jump with Zero Gravity at the San Diego County Fair

Monday, June 14th, 2010

In addition to all the fun things to do in Dallas here at Zero Gravity, for the next few weeks we’ve also got the west coast covered. We are operating a 130 foot bungee jump at the San Diego County Fair through July 5th, and any faithful fans who visit us in San Diego can jump for half the price!  So if you’re in the area, or are interested in more moderate temperatures this summer, stop by the San Diego County Fair to say hello.  Simply say “go jump” to our staff to receive your discount.

The jump will be manned by our expertly-trained Dallas staff, who also supports our presence at other major events like the Texas State Fair and Calgary Stampede.

The 2010 San Diego County Fair opened June 11 and runs through Monday, July 5. The fair will be closed on three Mondays — June 14, 21 and 28.  Admission gates open at 11:00 a.m. on weekdays, and at 10:00 a.m. on Saturdays, Sundays and Monday, July 5.  Gates close at 10:00 p.m. on weeknights and at 11:00 p.m. on Fridays and Saturdays.

We’d love to see you in San Diego, but if you can’t make it, come jump with us here in Dallas and take advantage of our online-only Four Ride Thrillseeker Combo package.

Jump Off the Stratosphere in Las Vegas

Friday, June 11th, 2010

If you’ve ever wanted to hurl yourself off an 830 foot building, you’re in luck.  The Stratosphere Las Vegas Hotel & Casino launched the New Zealand-designed “SkyJump” in April 2010, allowing visitors to jump from a platform overlooking the Vegas strip.

This is not bungee jumping, but a controlled descent while attached to guide wires that run from the platform to the ground.  Riders reach speeds of about 40 mph before the contraption slows you down 20 feet above the landing platform.  The whole thing takes about 15 seconds, and it costs $100.

If you can’t make it out to Vegas, don’t have $100 or value your life too much to jump from 850 feet, we’ll let you jump off our bungee platform here in Dallas for a fraction of the cost.  It’s one of the most fun things to do in Dallas, and unlike a trip to the Stratosphere, you won’t walk away with gambling debts.

Check out the below video for some info and action shots.

About.com Likes Zero Gravity

Tuesday, June 8th, 2010

About.com knows that visiting Zero Gravity is one of the most fun things to do in Dallas.  Arthur Levine, the About.com Theme Parks Guide, had this to say about Zero Gravity in a recent review:

Forget about carousels and cute walkaround characters at this Dallas, Texas park. Zero Gravity is a unique thrill park designed exclusively for extreme adrenaline junkies. The five rides include diabolical contraptions such as Nothin’ but Net in which daredevils are lifted 130 feet in the air and then dropped–without a harness, parachute, or nothin’ else–into a net.

Sounds about right.  From the Nothin’ but Net to bungee jumping to gliding through the air on the Skycoaster, there’s no better place to get your adrenaline fix.

Read Levine’s full review to see why Zero Gravity Thrill Amusement Park really is one of the best attractions in Dallas.
