What you can expect

Experience a one-on-one ride with a friendly and experienced pilot in a semi-submersible shark. Reach speeds of 80 kph on the water and 40 kph diving under the water.

Feel like you're inside a cross between a fighter jet and a torpedo. Skim across the top of the lake at 80 kph, then dive under the water, surrounding yourself in serene liquid blue.

Next, your pilot points the shark at the sky and it blasts back out again, straight up into the air before shattering the lake into a million crystal shards on a screaming re-entry.
