Hovercraft racing

Anybody can fly a hovercraft. As long as you are able to stay upright and on your knees, you can do it. It might be a little while before you are actually hovercraft racing but we will teach you in no time. Remember to keep your weight forward in the corners to balance the weight of your hovercraft and remember to never let go of the throttle when you are traveling sideway. There are not too many permanent hovercraft racing sites in the UK and at hoverdays we pride ourselves on having a fast, interesting course with tight corners and a pool to fly over. If you don't like the idea of hovercraft racing and would rather just learn how to fly a hovercraft, there's no pressure, just take your time.

Age limit: 5 and above. 14 to actually take the controls.

How does a session work?
Groups of up to eight are instructed on the handling and safety and then each person will get goes in 2 different hovercrafts before the racing begins. Hovercraft racing is quite physical so you will be glad of the rest while you recompose yourself and laugh at others.Anyone who has been hovercraft racing before is usually chosen to go first.

How long does a session last?
Generally 8 people should allow about 1.5 hours for the hovercraft racing. 16 people would be 3 hours. If you have an activity gift voucher or are here as part of a smaller group, your time will be less but you should allow at least an hour.
