Been There, Done That!
On our very first Florida Zipline course, and first ever Florida zipline tour, we had to figure out so many technical and operational issues because there was no other course like it in the United States to pull references and technical data. We believe it was also the first of its kind being an all tower based course, with high water tables, alligators, and snakes! This was a true challenge to invent a whole new industry operation from scratch! The tour ended up being 8 dual ziplines with a custom 200′ long suspension bridge. It was the longest of its kind at the time.
Ziplines have become very popular over the past 20 years from a recreational / commercial aspect. Stemming from crane lifting hoist in the Cota Rica forests for biological research in the 1990’s, to the first commercial tour in the United States, EBL is proud to have played a critical role in tour develops. It’s been an great ride and it just keeps on going! When we installed our first commercial zipline tour in Maui, Hawaii back in 2002, we never would have dreamed we would end up building 5 ziplines courses in Hawaii, 4 ziplines projects in Alaska, 5 zipline projects in Idaho, ziplines in Florida, Massachusetts, South and North Carolina, Arkansas, Illinois, Wisconsin, Iowa, Colorado, South Korea, ziplines in Canada, and consulted in just about every place in between.
Now we have launched a Roku TV Channel featuring the zipline, ropes course, and aerial adventure park industry’s first and only Reality TV show. An Amazon Firestick Channel is also in the works. We now have been producing music videos featuring our custom soundtracks scored by John Payne, former front man for the super group ASIA, with a vinyl album release later this year. We’ve produced a 3 part documentary on the effects of COVID -19 shut downs on the music industry, another piece on the formation of the Professional Ropes Course Association, technical training videos for ropes challenge courses, and pending documentaries on course modifications for inclusion for persons with disabilities, Hovawart dog breeding, and other unique subjects. So our channel has grown from a single source show into our own mini production company with varied content.
