Hovercraft Racing - Madness On The Water

The Sporty Forty: Sheffield's Sport Scene Challenge by Joe Wood and Rikki Hill

Episode notes

To Rother Valley this time for the fun, fast and totally mental sport of hovercraft racing.

They may look like a cross between a lawnmower and a mattress but they are astonishing bits of precision engineering. And boy can they move. Unique, equally fast on water and land and incredibly hard to drive.

We chatted with champions, winced at some close capsizing calls and generally had a much more fun time than at the snooker.

Join us for maybe the wackiest sport yet. Certainly the fastest.

Eleven down, twenty nine to go.
