This will allow you to portray a believable character for film or television Productions.

Air Rams have been utilised for action scenes on film and television productions with great success over the years. The technique for their use like any skill has to be worked on and honed to get the best results. Front, backwards, sideways and acrobatic dismounts can be achieved with practice. Performers will be run through the basic principles of this equipment. How it is designed to achieve the results we require for film.
