Colts Fan1 Posted February 15, 2010 #1 Share Posted February 15, 2010 I am very nervous about zip lining. I would love to hear feedback about it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cruisetmc Posted February 15, 2010 #3 Share Posted February 15, 2010 I guess the harnass keeps you from feeling like its a free fall. We did the canopy tour in puerta vallarta last December. I stayed away because of weight but since I'd lost 10 lbs I decided to try it. Really enjoyed it - should have done it sooner. I was 50 lbs below the weight.

Colts Fan1 Posted February 15, 2010 Author #4 Share Posted February 15, 2010 Does it feel like you are free falling? Because I also don't like roller coasters or heights. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coo359a2 Posted February 15, 2010 #5 Share Posted February 15, 2010 Does it feel like you are free falling? Because I also don't like roller coasters or heights. No. To me free falling is bungee jumping, jumping out of planes or something that takes a bit to "bottom" out and you leave your stomach back where you started from. In ziplining you stand at the edge of the platform, sit back in your harness, raise your feet and glide down the cable to the next platform.

BigRed93 Posted February 17, 2010 #6 Share Posted February 17, 2010 I think it feels more like a rustic swing than free falling. Did you even swing on a rope with just a big knot of the bottom to keep you from sliding off the bottom? Of course, today's ziplines are a bit more high tech and do have safety features...:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
truchattycathy Posted March 12, 2010 #7 Share Posted March 12, 2010 NOOOO!!!! Ziplining is not like free falling. No feeling like a roller coaster. I am terrified of heights, but I love to zipline. It is like gliding not falling. Everyone should try it. :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
