The Experience
Before You Go
Know the weight and age limits
Operators enforce a 100–235 lb weight window and require a moderate fitness level—check booking questions for age and height requirements.
Secure cameras and loose items
Use a tethered action camera or lock your phone—loose items are lost on long zips and can be dangerous to others.
Wear grippy, closed-toe shoes
