Three-dimensional zipline adventure ride

Abstract

A novel zip-line construction capable of three-dimensional movement is disclosed. The zip-line construction generally comprises a single or dual cable member having two ends, a trolley assembly having the ability to traverse a desired distance along the cable member and at least one device capable of attaching the cable member to a separate fixed body. The zip-line of the invention expands movement of the traditional zip-line from two-dimensional movement to three-dimensional movement, thereby advantageously providing a longer and more thrilling ride experience.

1 . A zip-line construction which comprises a longitudinal extended cable member having two separate ends independently attached to separate fixed bodies, a trolley assembly, having the ability to traverse the length of the cable and at least one modifying member attached to the cable and a fixed body wherein the modifying member has the ability to modify the path of the cable in a transverse direction. 
     
     
         2 . Where the member in claim one has a single or dual cable construction. 
     
     
         3 . A method of modifying the path of a zip-line cable comprising the use of a zip-line assembly as described in claim one.
