Agenda

• Why do you need a zipSTOP?

• Benefits of the zipSTOP Zip Line Brake

• Q & A

3

Why does your zip line need a zipSTOP?

• Brakes participants smoothly and comfortably– Greatly reduces the risk of human error

– Eliminates the need for pre-zip rider training

• Accommodates speeds from 10 kph (6 mph) to 60 kph (37 mph) or higher– Can be used on virtually any zip line to ensure a

positive customer experience and minimize risks

• Automatic reset in standard configurations– Reduces staff costs and the risk of human error

Some misperceptions about the zipSTOP

“It’s only for really fast zip lines”

“It’s really complicated”

– Can be used on zip lines as slow as 10 kph (6 mph)

– Great alternative to hand braking or guide-operated impact braking

– Improves throughput, even on slower lines

– Introducing the zipSTOP IR

– No longer requires an external reduction system

– Simplified installation

Eddy Current Braking

8

High Throughput

• Increased rider velocity possible

• Controlled braking distance

• Decreased rider unloading time

9

Improved Customer Experience

• Smooth and comfortable braking– Rider is focused on the

experience, not braking

– Smooth impact with gradual deceleration

• Consistent arrival at the platform– A tensioned line with a

positive slope is recommended

10

Minimal maintenance requirements and costs

• Annual recertification of the device

• Field-replaceable webbing and brake trolley bumpers

11

Strong Return on Investment

• Happy Customers– Smooth, comfortable and consistent braking

means a great customer experience

– Faster zip lines = more fun!
