Slackers ZIP-LINE KIT Mode D'emploi page 3

START POINT LAUNCHING - CAUTION The best and safest way to launch your riders, is to have them first get on
the zipline seat at the LOWEST part of your course (where the most dipping/sagging occurs) and then town them
back up to the starting point. This method helps eliminate the need for a platform and ladder where falling accidents
are most likely to occur. It is recommended that you place cushioning materials in and around your course - see
www.cpsc.gov/pagefiles/122149/325.pdf
IF YOU CHOOSE TO USE A PLATFORM - Your start point platform must be stable and strong enough to stand on
and must be placed on a flat, level surface.
CAUTION: If you decide to use a zipline without a rider seat, you increase the chance of a rider losing their grip on
the trolley and falling, resulting in possible injury. USE CAUTION in the height of your zipline course. Your riders
should be as low as possible so that if they do lose their grip, they only fall a few feet to the ground. However, their
feet should not drag on the ground as they ride the course.

2. ZIPLINE COURSE SETUP
• ZIPLINE COURSE SETUP GOAL: The set up goal is to have the rider accelerate at first, then at the last third of
the course, start decelerating and finish the course going slightly uphill at the end (due to dipping/sagging of the
zipline and rider as they progress down the course. In most cases, the rider will roll to a stop at the end, but will then
roll backwards toward the middle.
WARNING! SPEED HAZARD - DO NOT SET UP AN UNSAFE ZIPLINE. A
steep zipline course or one that has too much line tension will create an unsafe,
dangerous, high-speed course that could cause serious injury or death. See your zipline
instructions for proper setup. It is critical that the rider will already be slowing down
before they finish the course. BE SAFE, NOT FAST!
