The Balloon Race

Online Snail Race

I've added 6 new snail balloons to The Balloon Race. Rather than adding snail character/shapes I've tried to make these "snail balloons". They're like the foil balloon shapes with crinkled sides but they're definitely snails. This is to avoid problems I've had growing the duck race as all buttons on the site are balloon related. When a duck race is selected some buttons auto change to fit in with the theme but with snail balloons all default buttons are relevant.

To test as a minimum viable product I've added 6 basic snails in different colours:

A cartoon snail with a green body and an orange spiral shell.A cartoon-styled snail with a red body and a purple, spiral shell is depicted.A purple snail with a light blue, spiraled shell is depicted in a cartoon-like style.A colorful cartoon snail with a pink shell and green body is depicted on a white background.A cartoon snail with a green spiral shell and a blue body is depicted.A cartoon snail with a blue shell and pink body, featuring prominent eyes on stalks.

It's possible to run a snails only race by using the custom balloon list. If the concept proves popular I'll add more snail characters like I did with The Duck Race.

A snail race comes with all the additional improvements the race has had since 2008 - with a fantastic admin area, funds dashboard, instant stripe online payments to collect your funds and a simple same day bacs payout.

You can setup a race for £39 and if you take online sales there's a 12% fee.
