The tower of the zip line comes as a trailer and stands up for operation. The 130ft long zip line then tethers to the tow vehicle.

The auto-retract allows the zip rider to free fall down the zip line cable and slows them down safely the last 10% of the zip line ride. Once the zip rider is taken off the zip line, the zip carriage is retracted to the top of the zip line tower smoothly and safely ready for the next rider.

Requires an operating space of 63m long and 10m wide.
