The safe operation of a zip line and/or rope course requires knowledge and commitment from every person involved in its functioning, including the owner, site manager and guides. For this reason, it is imperative to implement safety standards, teach the correct use of the equipment, get to know thoroughly the facilities, and perform periodic reviews.
Another key point is to chose a responsible and courteous staff members and train them to provide customers with attention and kindness and in a responsible manner.
We offer operational training for all facilities that we develop. Additionally, we provide a customized training session in addition to a manual that summarizes all different aspects (strategies, procedures, techniques, maintenance, etc.) seen within the training session.
