Whanganui people got the chance to try out a crazy new sport at Cooks Gardens yesterday. It's called bubbleball and involves people donning an air-filled plastic bubble and, well, just doing whatever they want to.

Yesterday's event was run by Sport Whanganui and is forerunner to the bubbleballs being made available for public hire. Chronicle photographer Stuart Munro went along for look.
