Coward by nature but needed to step outside my comfort zone so tried this. That first second dropping over the edge was truely terrifying but the rest was extraordinary.

My wife and I loved the Shotover Canyon Swing in Queenstown. We walked into the headquarters, signed up and 15 minutes later we were headed to plunge into the abyss.

This is a amazing thing to do for people of all ages. The staff make it a great experience and fun. I was very nerves and they made me feel so much more at ease.
