This just adds to the excitement! Absolutely cant miss while visiting Freemont Street. It's lacking speed & distance but who cares... it's extremely FUN!!! The hardest part is pushing off the platform when the guy releases the trigger & you let go of fear & know 'you are hooked ' flying thru the air in a harnest, best feeling! Have no fear. You can look down and see all the people, laughing the entire time. Feels comfortable, safe and happy. I highly recommend it. Just Go For It! Woo!!! Great View. They offer a package deal of $40 pictures at the end of the zipline and you download the pictures on your cellphone if you like them.
