 Bungee Jumping
Come hurtling down 100s of feet with nothing but a dizzy head and disoriented stomach! XtremeZone offers bungee jumping from mobile towers and cranes across India. We have supervised over 25,000 jumps in the last 2 years. Our perfect safety record is the result of the most technologically advanced bungee jumping system in the world and our dedication to ensure our jumpers' safety.
XtremeZone uses special purpose harnesses and very strong elastic cords along with other load certified equipment. Bungee jumping is held using a heavy duty certified crane and a robust jump cage. The whole system adheres to Standards Association, New Zealand.
Did you know? Bungee Jumping today is a modernized version of an ancient rite of manhood performed in the Pentecost Islands in the South Pacific. Young men jumped from specially constructed bamboo towers with vines attached to their ankles to break their fall.

 Reverse Bungee Jumping,
Defy gravity! Reverse Bungee is one of the most exciting attractions currently in extreme sports. This sport holds fascination for adults and children alike and even those with no experience to experience the thrill.
At XtremeZone, a Reverse Bungee participant is anchored to the ground with a strong and safe parachute harness. Then the bungee chord is attached to the participant and the chord is stretched to 5 times its original length. Post this, the participant is released and he shoots up to a height of 140 ft in 3 seconds. The rush of this ride is amazing and the participant experiences 2G's - three times the force of gravity
Rocket man
Defy gravity and kiss Mother Earth all at once! Rocket man offers daredevils, an experience of bungee jumping and reverse bungee jumping in one go. While the process of anchoring and launching is same as the reverse bungee, an improvisation of a hook, which functions due to gravity, adds an extra thrill to Rocket man. Here the participant is launched into thin air head upwards up to 140 feet or above. The moment he reaches the maximum required height, his body takes a180 degree shift; he takes a 'U-turn in mid air' (link to the Deccan herald article) and starts rushing head down towards the ground, till the bungee chord holds him back. Therefore the participant experiences bungee jumping and reverse bungee in one go. Now you can relax

 Chimney Climbing
Get real! This is primitive skills to the fore. Take some bruises on your body, find the right footing, pull yourself up! Once you've conquered it, there's no comparison for that feeling of triumph.
Chimney Climbing is simply, rock climbing inside a natural vertical path made up of two faces of a rock - much like trying to escape using a chimney!
If the chimney is wide enough to allow the climber to place his shoulders against the back wall and one or both feet against the front wall, the climber can move up by pushing against the back wall with one foot and both hands. Climbing in this manner takes a lot of strength and coordination and can be extremely tiring. According to the experts "The difference between a good climber and a great one is the ability to stop in a tough place to rest."
Camp XtremeZone has on its site, a wonderful piece of rock with natural crack that is sure to double the excitement of scaling it.

 Kayaking
Kayaking at XtremeZone Getawayz is an individual experience. While rafting lets you speed up and experience the rapids, kayaking lets you experience the river flow all-alone. A kayak travels at a good speed and is completely skill based while rafting is more or less controlled by our instructor, kayaking tests your skills and also your courage to brave the river flow. Needles to mention that, you will be safe in our hands; we will never let you drift away. Most of the rivers identified for kayaking are completely safe.
