Safe Launch System

Studies have shown that a large part of zipline accidents come directly from operator error. With that said, gear and maintenance come second when referring to the statistics and our experience dealing with our competitors. Going forward, we at Skyline have recognized the industry-wide necessity for a product like Safe Launch to mitigate our customers exposure to danger and not leave the clients’ lives in operators’ hands, as we know it only takes one mistake.

There’s no doubt that injuries have increased as ziplining has become more popular—although the exact number of people who zipline each year is unknown. Many injuries that occur are due to issues with equipment; having the right zip line safety equipment is a key factor in preventing injuries and accidents. Let’s make Safe Launch an industry standard!

Skyline has taken strides in revolutionizing safety in the ziplining industry. As more and more people turn to ziplines for thrill-seeking and fun, equipment and safety features must be able to handle the demand. Inspections ensure there are no unforeseen hazards. Combined with state-of-the-art safety features and our extremely reliable braking system, high speeds, impacts, and overly enthusiastic riders won’t create undue risk.

By including multiple mechanical, visual, and electronic safety protocols, this piece of zipline safety equipment will reduce the risk of rider injury to near zero. Many direct and indirect benefits come out of the combined zipline safety equipment technologies that will make this system a reality.

The system will increase site revenues by a healthy amount with the possibility of integrating automated photo capture and sales, digital waivers, and having the entire system enabled by RFID for operational safety and system monitoring.

At Skyline Ziplines, safety is our highest priority, from site design, engineering, and fabrication to construction and installation, training and operational support. We also conduct ACCT-accredited safety inspections to cover all the moving parts of a zipline system and factors such as speed, height, and stability. All the equipment is high-strength and durable, but we’ve gone even further by developing advanced electronic safety systems that constantly monitor operating conditions and minimize the risk of operator error.
