Welcome to the world's most exciting no-sweat adrenaline ride. The ZipRider zip line cable ride is based on the familiar concept of the back yard zip line, but from there it takes a giant leap beyond anything you may have thought possible.The key lies in the ZipRider™ trolley, a device designed to automatically brake while the rider descends cable gradients ranging from 5%-40%.
With the creation of this device a whole new world of sky travel is possible. The ZipRider™ zip line cable ride can adapt to almost any location and can even be retrofitted to pre-existing towers or structures. Whether you are located on level terrain or in a mountainous environment, the ZipRider™ zip line cable ride can accommodate your year-round revenue producing needs.
If you are wondering whether the ZipRider™ zipline cable ride will work for your park or resort, visit the contact page and send us an email. We would be happy to visit your park or resort for an initial feasibility study of prospective ZipRider locations.
If you are interested in experiencing the ZipRider for yourself book a flight to Salt Lake City, Utah, and we will personally give you the tour of our four Utah ZipRiders currently in operation. You will ride the ZipRider at the Park City Mountain Resort which until recently was the longest zipline in the world. At 2,300 feet long it is still the longest zipline in the lower 48 states. You will ride the “Xtreme” ZipRider at the Utah Olympic Park at speeds up to 60 miles per hour descending at an average percent grade of 34%, making this the steepest and fastest zipline in the world. There is also a smaller ZipRider that we installed at the Utah Olympic Park which gives customers a warm up before the “Xtreme.” Finally, you will experience the ZipRider at the Snowbird Summer and Ski Resort, which begins a top a 60 foot tower and lands on the Snowbird Tram deck.
