Indoor skydiving?
Hot air balloon?

My nephew loved goape.

Indoor sky diving - good one. Perhaps too light I will check

Go ape wasn’t remotely adrenaline fuelled enough for him!

Hot air balloon… not a chance
I have recurring nightmare of plummeting in one!

DS loved the mountain biking/orienteering tuition course that he did over the summer - he came home absolutely filthy though - be warned!

DD1 had

  • indoor skydiving
  • helicopter ride (TERRIFIED me)
  • rib (rigid inflatable boat) ride

Mountain biking. Open water swimming. Skateboarding.

Basically stuff that requires skill/effort and doesn’t cost the earth!

Boating

My son drove a lamborghini and porsche at Donington racetrack when he was about that age. Or there is kids drifting at Birmingham if they are into cars. A Google will bring up the company

We did the Bear Grylls iFLY experience in Birmingham, my son was 10
Yrs old at the time and weighed approx. 5st. So really flew about, was great fun.
