FROM abseiling to zorbing, pictured, thrill-seekers looking for something different are being urged to check out a new website.

superfundaysout.com is a free online directory created by three adrenaline-junkie employees of the University of Winchester.

It showcases more than 2,000 companies offering thrills such as sky-diving, paint balling, tank-driving, surfing, whitewater rafting and hotair ballooning.

superfundaysout.com takes no commission from bookings and is financed by advertising from participating activity providers.

Yaz El-Hakim, Hugh Bassett- Jones and Dominic Northcott, all from Southampton, are the brains behind the company.

They made their vision a reality after securing a Business Start-Up award. Yaz said: “We are confident that we are creating the best, most comprehensive, most intuitive and free of charge directory for anyone wanting to take part in any extreme or adrenaline sports anywhere in the country.”
