Rough Runner

Posted on 30 Apr 2021

 

The popularity of endurance, agility and strength challenges has led to the growth of high-energy obstacle events around the world in recent years.

When Rough Runner wanted to create challenging attractions capable of handling thousands of competitive participants, they approached Airquee to help bring their ideas to life.

Built for a challenge

Airquee specialises in designing and manufacturing commercial inflatables capable of withstanding intensive use.

For events such as Rough Runner, combining inflatables with mechanical elements also offers an important advantage: transportation. Large inflatable obstacles can be packed down and moved far easier than many traditional structures, helping touring events reduce the amount of heavy equipment required.

This allowed Rough Runner to take its events around the country while creating large-scale, memorable challenges for participants.

Why Rough Runner chose Airquee

Rough Runner needed confidence that its equipment could cope with thousands of people putting it through its paces over a short period.

Airquee's experience in research and development, design and manufacturing meant we could work closely with the organisers to develop attractions around their objectives, budget and demanding operational requirements.

Our expertise also extends beyond traditional inflatables, including the development of attractions combining inflatables, water and mechanical moving components.

A successful partnership

Following the success of the project, Rough Runner returned to discuss further collaboration and new additions to its obstacle range.
