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

Safety
• Patented eddy current magnetic braking technology
– Controlled braking distance
– Consistent, even at high velocities
– Brake is always engaged
• Reduces the possibility of human error

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
