At Hocking Hills Canopy Tours the SuperZip® delivers a compressed, full‑throttle moment: two riders launched side‑by‑side from an 85‑foot tower, diving through forest canopy and sweeping down the middle of the Hocking River in a ‘superhero’ flying position. The actual run is brief—less than a minute—but the setup, safety briefing and on‑site time typically take 45 minutes to an hour, making this a compact, high‑velocity highlight of a Hocking Hills visit.

Highlights

Outing Highlights

THE LAUNCH

Dual launches from an 85‑foot tower

The SuperZip® sends two zippers at once from an 85‑foot launch tower—riders depart side‑by‑side for a direct head‑to‑head rush.

THE SPEED

Quarter‑mile runs that hit up to 50 mph

This quarter‑mile dual zipline is built for speed: the advertised top velocity is up to 50 miles per hour, with the zip itself lasting under a minute.

THE FLIGHT

Fly ‘superhero’ style over the Hocking River

Riders assume a superhero flying position as they plunge through the tree canopy and swoop over the middle of the Hocking River—an award‑winning, adrenaline‑forward moment.

What the day feels like

What the run feels like

Expect a tight, intense experience: after check‑in and briefing you step up to the 85‑foot tower, launch alongside another rider, then hurtle in a stretched, face‑down ‘superhero’ posture through the canopy and over the river. The sprint from launch to landing is very short—under a minute—but the structural drama of the tower, the parallel launch, and the river crossing make the moment memorable.

Suitability
