Here is an awesome invention for ziplines to get the trolley/seat back to the start after someone rides to the finish. This is a battery powered and remote controlled trolley from ziplinegear.com This is a "beta" unit they provided for me to evaluate and I must say its sweet! Bringing the trolley back to the start has always been the biggest annoyance with ziplines either by walking it back with a rope or in my case unhooking and carrying the stuff back to the start since mine goes over the pond.

On the previous zip line video I meant to comment after it was over but... Anyway here it is "u might want a second line with opposite elevation for each direction, sorta like an escalator." But if u jump into the middle of the lake that new toy you've got would work better & a second line wouldn't... 💗💕

Hey Nate! How much weight does it take for the gear to disengage from the zip line? Please let me know!! Thanks :)

@NaterTater Год назад

I'm not sure of the exact amount, the rope and wood seat is probably a good 5lbs. My lightest rider has be around 30lbs. So somewhere between there. I'm sure if you contact ZipLineGear they can tell you.

@NothingToDoCrew 2 года назад

We built something similar on our channel and they are amazing for long ziplines. Can the boomerang pull people too, or is it just a trolley return?

@NaterTater 2 года назад

it is designed specifically to not pull people. The drive wheel disengages when weight is pulling down on the trolley.

@NothingToDoCrew 2 года назад

@@NaterTater oh, that's dumb... If you want to get the trolley back to the top, there's a muuuch simpler solution: Attach a line to the trolley, and put a 5 lb weight on the other end. When the rider goes down, the weight goes up and when the rider gets off the weight goes down and pulls up the trolley.

@NothingToDoCrew 2 года назад

that way you don't even need someone on standby with a remote and you never have to charge batteries

Very cool product but kind of a bummer that it’s not outdoor rated. On second thought that makes me absolutely not want it.

Nate how are you brother I reached to ZLG and spoke with Dillion he asked how'd I here about it since it wasn't in production yet I haven't responded to his email yet wanted to make sure it was all good with you first .. hit me back..

That may be good for transporting supplies are whatever.

Yes perhaps from start to finis(ie with gravity). Powered trolley only works when unloaded though.

@@NaterTater Oh I see. Guess that wouldn't work the way I thought. That's too much to ask from a battery. :)

Great idea however it is a non starter unfortunately as it cannot handle the weather and costs about 3 times what it should. Goodbye spur of the moment zip line rides as it would have to be mounted and dismounted on a daily basis when using the zip line. I would possibly consider this trolley when the cost drops significantly under $400 and it can handle the weather. This cost point and weather proofing is possible as demonstrated by the reasonable cost and reliability of many high quality battery operated hand tools that we all own and use daily. I assume the designer of this will be working with the Chinese manufacturer towards an IP rated trolley at a much lower price point.
