Anyone been on the Labadee zipline?

Have any of y'all been on the Dragon's Breath zip line in Labadee? I've only been zip lining once and its was a tiny 100 foot zip line at a local fair, not anything like this. 

 

Does it feel like a roller coaster? I've read you are supposed to take off your glasses and wear closed shoes but in some of the YouTube videos people are wearing sunglasses. I wear glasses and its easier to keep them on to enjoy the view. Can you control how fast you go or is it a set speed based on the equipment and gravity? 

 

Is it true that the launch point is outside the secure fenced in area of Labadee and requires you going out side the gate?

I wouldn't say it feels like a roller coaster. You cant really control your speed but they will depending on conditions direct you whether to go down with your arms and legs spread...they call it starfish or to keep you arms and legs close to your body. I don't remember if you can wear glasses or not but I do believe you need closed toe shoes. Yes, you do cross through the secured gate to get to the top.
