At ZIP FIJI, safety is our top priority

We have the highest safety standards in the industry. Although many tours say they’re safe, few can tell you exactly what they do to make it so, but we can!

• Our tour was built by High Adventure Technology, one of the most experienced adventure tour construction companies in operation. The experts at High Adventure Technology have been creating and operating attractions around the world for over a dozen years and they are also the authors of the safety and operational procedures used on our tour. In addition to setting up our zipline adventure they provide training, evaluations and maintenance to ensure our tour continues to operate at the highest level.
• We only use internationally-certified, superior-quality materials, components and equipment and we use conservative equipment and element capacity limits. We inspect our equipment and tour elements incessantly and document every detail.
• Our double-line traverses and comprehensive safety line systems provide unsurpassed risk reduction.
• We use a time-tested operations system that incorporates internationally-recognized high angle techniques proven effective for risk management in high adventure tours.
• Since our staff are the heart of the operation, our training program is the most comprehensive in existence. Guides receive extensive instruction and practice so they can operate the tour professionally and safely.

Minimum Requirements for Participation

All participants must meet the following minimum requirements. While we do not wish to exclude anyone from enjoying the zipline adventure, we reserve the right to do so if necessary to keep all our guests as safe as possible.

In order to participate you must:

1. Be able to walk 15 minutes uphill over uneven ground unassisted and without walking aids and have sufficient mobility and strength to climb a 5-meter (20-foot) ladder unassisted.
2. Weigh less than 135 kilograms (300 pounds) and fit in the equipment (harness, helmet and gloves) in a safe manner as determined by the Head Guide (maximum waist measurement 120 cm/47”, maximum thigh measurement 70 cm/27”, and maximum head diameter 61 cm/24”).
Because body weight affects the crossing speed on the traverses, and excessive speed can result in injuries, guests may be asked to weigh in prior to participation.
3. Be able to be on a small platform approximately 5 ‘stories’ high without experiencing excessive anxiety or reactions such as dizziness, fainting, hyperventilation, unresponsiveness or vomiting.
4. Be at least 5 years of age and have a torso length of at least 45 cm/18". Children under legal age (18) must be accompanied by an adult. There is no maximum age.
5. Be able to understand directions and comply with rules.
The tour is not recommended for persons with asthma, balance problems, epilepsy, heart problems, some disabilities, back, neck or shoulder problems or those who are pregnant.

Intoxicated persons or persons using drugs or medications that may affect balance, concentration, coordination or judgment, may not participate.

Risks

In spite of all that we do to ensure your safety this type of activity has implicit risks that cannot be predicted nor completely prevented. Fortunately most of these risks are relatively minor ones such as the possibility of receiving cuts, bruises, muscle strains, small friction burns or insect bites; however, although serious accidents are highly unlikely, there is the potential for life-threatening injury on the tour. As for most adventurous activities, participants must sign a waiver prior to doing the tour and are at their own risk and responsibility. If you would like more information regarding the risks or insurance coverage, please ask.
