Bungee Runs - An After Prom Favorite

The school year is creeping back on students, with the back to school sales an indicator that another year of school is inevitably upon them.  Although many students don't love the idea of returning to school, it brings back so many opportunities for fun, friendship, and sports!  The parents will begin to gather together to start planning the multiple events throughout the year, from seasonal activities, to pep rallies, to after proms.  A&S Play Zone can help with all of these events, but the After Proms are what people focus the most on.  One of the most popular items at these after proms is the Bungee Run, which A&S has three different versions of.

First, the standard two lane bungee run.  Participants put on a vest with a bungee cable in the back.  They will hold a Velcro baton in one hand, and sprint down the lane against their opponent.  The goal is to be the person who can place the Velcro baton furthest down the center lane.  

Second comes the three lane bungee run, which is very similar to the two lane, but as the name suggests, has a third lane.  This way, a group of three friends could challenge each other to a bungee run race.  Think of have the three football players, or three cheerleaders race against each other!

Lastly, the First and Goal Bungee Run.  This has a similar concept to the other two bungees, but instead of running parallel and next to another person, participants run in opposite directions, attached to the same bungee cable.  So this bungee is more of a direct contest, with contestants pulling each other while trying to place a ball into a hoop farther away from the center post.  

So when you are looking into items for your school's after prom, make sure to look into A&S Play Zone's inventory of Bungee Runs!

Human Hamsterball! The Criss Cross Collision Course!

One of the most interesting A&S Play Zone has to offer is it's Criss Cross Collision Course, or as many people refer to it, the Human Hamsterball.  Just like it sounds, it involves people acting like hamster, crawling inside a ball, and rolling around.  A&S can rent the balls out separately from the track, if the event is indoors and on a padded surface, but if an event is outside, the track is required for safety reasons.  The best place to have it is on a grass surface, so that in the rare case that someone may fall, they would be additionally padded by the Earth.  But again, this is a rarity.  The track is almost 80 feet long, and can be used to have two people race against.  It's interesting enough watching two people race while contained inside a human hamsterball, but it's possible to make it even more difficult!  There are designated sections of the blowup that can be filled with water!  Changing the terrain like this reduces the friction of the ball on the water, so the participant spins even faster in an attempt to make it over the edge and back onto the dry section.  The Human Hamsterballs can be found on the A&S Play Zone website, and there you can see a picture of the item.  Whether you are planning a company picnic, or want something special for your school's after prom, the Criss Cross Collision Course isn't something you see every day.

I was at an after prom last year, where A&S Play Zone provided their Boot Camp obstacle course, and two lane bungee run.  The line for the Boot Camp was enormous, and so was the bungee run.  Kids used them until the very end of the after prom event.  If you've had an interesting inflatable or exciting item at your after prom, let us know what it was in the comment section!  Chances are that it was from A&S Play Zone!
