WHAT YOU DO AT DIG THIS

GET READY TO DIG, PUSH, AND ROAR WITH LAUGHTER!

After doing battle with man vs. machine, there’s nothing better to calm one’s nerves than a quick jaunt through our retail store. Grab a few items to take the Dig This experience home with you, and wear them with pride.

CHOOSE YOUR EQUIPMENT

Choose your weapon! When you book, choose between any of our machines, such as a fully climate-controlled Caterpillar D5K Track-Type Bulldozer, Caterpillar 3I5CL Hydraulic Excavator, Skid Steer, or Mini Excavator:

Sample Bulldozer Exercises:

  • Build huge mounds
  • Push gigantic tires
  • Teeter-Totter over a mega mound

Sample Excavator Exercises:

  • Dig gigantic trenches
  • Stack 2,000 pound tires
  • Play “Bucket Basketball”

IN-CAB ORIENTATION

The words “Get A Grip” take on new meaning at Dig This when you’re seated at the helm of our giant earth movers. Our instructors walk you through every lever, button, and thing-a-majig that you need to know to maneuver our machines with the grace of a ballerina. After just a short time of in-cab training, you’ll have the confidence it takes to get to the business of play.

WARM-UP EXERCISES

Wheeling these bad-boy machines around the yard might take some baby steps to get fully comfortable. So we’ve designed a series of warm up exercises to get you digging like a champ. You’re connected via headset to our instructors at all times so that you can operate smoothly, under the watchful eyes of our crew. From here, you’re digging, trenching, pushing, and dragging your haul around the lot in no time.

ACTIVITIES

Now that you’re a pro at the basic operation of the machine, our staff guides you through a series of activities to test your skills. Ever played a game of “Excavator Basketball,” or built and ridden your own “Bulldozer Teeter-Totter?” Well, after your Dig This experience, you can say you have. Our specially planned activities are designed to put the FUN back in fundamentals.

FREE TIME*

Yep, just like recess at school, it’s time to set you loose. Tear, dig, rip, claw, grind, and drive to your heart’s content (under the watchful eye of our instructors, of course). Is there something you’ve always wanted to see these machines do, up-close, and personal? Well, here’s your chance during the free time segment of the Las Vegas Dig This experience. If you don’t have sore cheeks from smiling, and tired abdominal muscles from laughing after this phase of the game, then you’re not trying hard enough.

AWARD CELEBRATION

You worked hard and have proven your skills behind the controls of America’s most powerful machines. Now it’s time to celebrate with an official Certificate of Completion, and a photo opportunity to commemorate this joyous occasion. Hang your plaque with pride. Boast about your achievement for years to come. You’ve earned it!

RETAIL THERAPY!

After doing battle with man vs. machine, there’s nothing better to calm one’s nerves than a quick jaunt through our retail store. Grab a few items to take the Dig This experience home with you, and wear them with pride. Might we recommend the aromatherapy treatment you’ll only find at Dig This? Try one of our dirt-scented candles? Yep! No kidding. We have ‘em.
