A colourful option for zip line trolleys in 2020
First up is the Hornet Trolley. A nice design feature is that it combines the trolley with the handlebar. Normally, this type of setup would require tour operators to take down the cable. However, with a simple twist of the handlebar, you can remove it with ease. The clip-in slot can handle a single carabiner. Giving you the option of using a seat or a harness.
Thanks to the easy to use hinge, and rubber grips, the Hornet is an excellent choice. Especially if you are looking for a comfortable alternative for your guests. This is particularly true for beginners. The handlebar helps the rider feel more secure, decreasing the likelihood of them spinning. Having a negative experience will make them stay away from ziplines in the future. They might also leave a negative review since the experience didn’t go as they had planned in their mind. By using handlebars, you’ll also ensure riders are facing the right way. This can be really helpful when coming to a stop at the landing platform
Simple by design
The Rogue trolley uses a simpler approach than the Petzl or Hornet. This does not impact its performance. With Rogue you can load and unload from the cable by simply detaching the carabiners you’re using. The tie point can handle up to three carabiners, making it extremely versatile. This is the best option if you want flexibility along with a no-fuss experience. It’s also able to go faster than the Hornet or Petzl.
Flashy and effective
Our last pick is the Petzl Trac Plus. Its colorful design will help you wow your guests, while not sacrificing performance. Its unique integral carabiner makes the setup process fast and secure. It also includes front and rear back up hooks, helping to retain the backup carabiners more efficiently.
in Conclusion
In the end, you need to think about the type of experience that you want to offer. In our opinion, these are some of the best zip line trolleys in 2020 and they should adapt to your needs, however, they might not be the best for every operator. Think of your setup and what you want your guests to remember. You also need to keep in mind what your staff will do with the trolleys at the end of the ride.
Finally, we would like to remind you that keeping all the touchpoints of your experience sanitized is a must. You could face hefty fines from the local government for not complying with the regulations. Another reason to sanitize your setup is that you do not want guests to leave a negative review. The time you invest in keeping your tour safe for everyone is better used than having to deal with negative reviews.
