Your Zap Cat Blast will start with a short safety briefing, after which you will be kitted out with a wet suit, helmet and buoyancy aid. After helping to launch the Zap Cat and the back up boat the thrills will really begin. You will each take a series of approximately five-minute rides in the zap cat whilst the other participant watches from the back up boat. This is more than enough at a time. You will receive a minimum of 3 rides each during the 1 hour blast. The blast may consist of flat-out runs with high-speed turns, or wave jumping, and wave riding, or maybe even a mixture of the two depending on conditions on the day.
After recovering the boats from the water you will get chance to have a warm drink and talk about your experience with the other participants back at the school.
Pre-Requisites: Participants must be aged 14 or over, and minors must be accompanied by a parent or legal guardian at all times.
Please note: Zap Cat Blasts are very physical experiences and you may receive minor knocks and jolts, as you would from some fairground rides. Pregnant ladies and those of a delicate physical disposition should not therefore participate in Zap Cat Blasts.
You will be asked to sign an assumption of risk & release of liability form, and also a medical form prior to the experience. If in doubt please contact us before booking.
The decision lies with the person employed by NWKS to call off the Zap Cat Blast for safety reasons in the event of adverse weather conditions.
Booking Information: (Please read carefully)
Once you have chosen your course or activity, please contact NWKS via e-mail or telephone (01229 470303 or 077 2407 8057) to see if your required date is available. We always answer e-mails within 24 hours, if your e-mail is not answered within 24 hours please contact us via phone.
Once a date has been agreed you will be pencilled in for that date and will be sent a medical form and an invoice for a 20% deposit for your course fee. Once you have completed the medical form and returned it along with your deposit the booking is deemed to be confirmed.
Two days prior to your booking you will be contacted with a weather check and provided with details of the time and place we should meet.
Please Note: NWKS can arrange most things for you, but unfortunately we cannot control the weather. We can teach kiting safely in winds from 12 to 25mph. But should your course fail to go ahead due to lack of or too much wind you will be offered alternative dates – or if you are unable to return, an alternative outdoor activity such as a Zap Cat Blast, Towable Fun, or Wakeboarding.
