Over the past couple of months, everyone at Skyline has been super busy designing, engineering, and installing new zipline attractions all over the world. Through covid-19, we had several significant delays and setbacks. However, we are here to share some success stories that we have had over the past few months. We have successfully started and are in the process of completing four zipline builds. The locations of these builds are Iceland, California, Japan, and Arizona.

Zipline Building in Iceland

The island country of Iceland sits at the northern end of the Atlantic Ocean, beside its larger, colder neighbor, Greenland. Iceland is known for its stunning landscapes, geothermal hot pools, breathtaking hiking trails, and the Aurora Borealis.

Tourism contributes about 30% of Iceland’s annual GDP. With that in mind, Skyline helped Mega Zipline Iceland bring their high-flying dreams to life by building the country’s largest zipline. The single-segment parallel mega zipline is located in Hveragerði and offers both seated and Superman flying positions. Riders can reach speeds of up to 80 km/h while soaring through Iceland’s expansive landscape.

This is no backyard zipline. Guests take a thrilling 4×4 tour up two-thirds of the hill, followed by a 150m scenic walk beside a raging river. At the top, riders can choose a quick freefall jump for an adrenaline rush or relax on the waiting deck and enjoy the view of a waterfall.

The jump and waiting deck sit beside one of Hveragerði’s beautiful waterfalls, offering stunning scenery before the 1 km zipline ride back down to the bottom. At the base, visitors can enjoy mountain bike trails, hot springs, and a quiet cafe for a caffeine fix.

We are beyond excited to see the potential of this operation and look forward to its success.

California Zipline Build

California is the most populous state in the United States of America. With 39.5 million residents spread across the 1350km long coastline. This area is diverse and brings many tourists to their Mediterranean climate allowing for moderate temperatures year-round. Skyline’s newest zipline build in California took place in Santa Barbra, with three new ziplines and one megazipline. In addition to the three new ziplines, a complete treetop challenge course is under construction to provide an exciting interactive experience through the mountains. None of the ziplines attach to or put a cable around the trees. The private property this zipline build took place on prefers to remain unnamed at this time. However, the park will be open to the public in the future.

Japan’s New Mega Zipline Experience.

Japan’s culture is like no other. The friendly people, their age-old customs, and delicious seafood are all a part of Japan’s charm, that brings so many people to visit. On the island of Hokkaido is a ski town called Niseko, known for its deep snow, steep skiing, and views of the Niseko volcanic range. The views of volcanoes and epic mountains will put the rider in awe as they race down one of the longest ziplines in Asia. The adventure course takes you through the mountains of Niseko with three ziplines reaching speeds up to 90-110 km/h. The one-and-a-half-hour guided tour lets guests experience Japan’s largest zipline, a 1.8km mega zipline accessed by a chairlift.

Legacy Sports Arizona’s Newest Zipline Build

Just outside Phoenix sits Legacy Sports in Mesa, Arizona. This sports facility is enormous, featuring eight baseball diamonds, 19 basketball courts, 35 soccer fields, 57 indoor volleyball courts, 12 beach volleyball courts, 41 pickleball courts, 22 futsal courts, a gaming lounge, and fitness centers.

In addition to the sports center, there is an entertainment district with shopping, music events, and a brand-new zipline. The Skyline Zipline build provides a birds-eye view of the surrounding sporting events. Day camp participants can take a break from their busy schedule and enjoy a thrilling ride.

The zipline spans just over 410 ft, offering a quick rush of adrenaline while giving campers and visitors a moment to rest between sports. The line attaches to termination towers provided by the site, using our braking system to ensure the safest ride and perfect cable tension. The cable sag allows for year-round use in all weather conditions.

Building the zipline for Legacy Sports required precise engineering. The ride was designed for a covered outdoor setting, ensuring riders enjoy a comfortable yet thrilling experience between sports.
