Highlights
Outing Highlights
Adjustable Super Hero Flight
The attraction’s defining feature is an adjustable cable system that allows guides to set the line to a speed that matches a guest’s comfort level, so the same course can be dialed back for introduction or wound up for maximum velocity.
Base Jump / 'Max drape' — the bigger thrill
For a second-tier package, the operator decreases line tension and increases the angle of the main line for a faster, more aggressive run; launch from a ramp and a larger angle can produce strong centrifugal forces (reported up to about 3 G), with riders positioned roughly 10 m below the main cable.
Tandem Flights to build confidence
Tandem flights are offered so a more confident rider can fly with someone less sure — an option noted as especially useful for parents helping children find the confidence to progress to solo flights.
What the day feels like
What the experience feels like
Expect a short, focused program: guests begin with a Super Hero Flight and, for those who choose the extended package, will land and return to the top for the Super Hero/Base Jump ‘Max drape’ run; staff operate the system to tailor speeds to each rider and make the final flight selection on site to ensure safety and fit.
